Lidl GB recalls XXL Sondey Stroopwaffel with Caramel Flavour Filling & Butter because of the possible presence of metal

Why it was recalled

Lidl GB is recalling its XXL Sondey Stroopwaffel with Caramel Flavour Filling & Butter because the product may contain metal, making it unsafe to eat. Metal fragments in a dense caramel waffle would be hidden completely until bitten into.

As a foreign-object recall, this has nothing to do with the recipe: no affected pack can be identified by looking, so the entire product is being withdrawn.
