The National Trust recalls biscuits due to a labelling error
England, Wales and Northern Ireland
The National Trust is recalling a range of biscuits as they have been prepared and manufactured in a factory that also handles peanuts and/or tree nuts and is missing ‘may also contain peanuts or tree nuts’ within the allergen statement on the label. This means the products are a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to peanuts and/or tree nuts.

About allergy alerts
Sometimes there will be a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold. Then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). Sometimes foods have to be withdrawn or recalled if there is a risk to consumers because the allergy labelling is missing or incorrect or if there is any other food allergy risk. When there is a food allergy risk, the FSA will issue an Allergy Alert.
