Sainsbury’s recalls By Sainsbury’s Slow Cooked Lamb Shoulder with Redcurrant Honey & Rosemary Glaze because of undeclared milk

Why it was recalled

Sainsbury's is recalling its By Sainsbury's Slow Cooked Lamb Shoulder with Redcurrant Honey & Rosemary Glaze because the dish contains milk that is not mentioned on the label. Glazes and sauces are a common hiding place for dairy ingredients that shoppers cannot see or taste in advance.

For anyone with a milk allergy or intolerance, a centrepiece roast is a product bought with particular care, which makes the missing declaration more consequential than it may sound.
