Seafood ready meals contain nuts and ghee
Tuesday 23 September 2008
The Food Standards Agency has been informed that two ready meal products sold in Asda stores and smaller retailers do not have the correct allergen labelling. Both products contain nuts and ghee (milk) but the product’s allergen information only mentions the presence of seafood.
The products are:
- Secrets of the Sea Prawns Pulao, 285g
- Secrets of the Sea Prawns Biriyani, 285g
These are both long-life ready meals with a best before date of September 2009.
Anyone with an allergy to nuts, milk and seafood is warned not to eat these products.
The importers, Tanjum, has told the Agency that it is relabelling the products and sending point-of-sale notices to its retail customers for display in their stores.
