Food Safety Alert: Urgent Recalls from Waitrose, Domino's, and Papa John's!
Hold onto your pizza boxes, folks, because we've got a triple whammy of food safety recalls hitting the shelves! Waitrose, Domino's, and Papa John's have all issued urgent recalls for certain products due to potential health risks.
Waitrose: It seems the folks at Waitrose got a little too excited about the new "Gluten-Free" label. A batch of their Waitrose Free From Falafel Bites were accidentally labeled as gluten-free when they actually contained gluten. So, if you're celiac or just super sensitive to gluten, steer clear of these falafel bites.
Domino's: Now, Domino's is known for their tasty pizza, but they seem to have dropped the ball on some of their ingredients. A batch of their Domino's Thin & Crispy Pepperoni Pizza was recalled due to the potential presence of undeclared allergens, including wheat, milk, and soy. So, if you're allergic to any of these ingredients, you might want to hold off on that pepperoni pizza for now.
Papa John's: Papa John's is no stranger to controversy, but this time it's not about their "better ingredients" slogan. A batch of their Papa John's Garlic Parmesan Wings was recalled due to potential contamination with Salmonella. Salmonella is a nasty little bug that can cause some serious food poisoning symptoms, so it's important to be cautious.
What to do if you have any of the recalled products:
- Don't eat them! Throw them away immediately.
- Check your fridge: If you have any of the affected products, double-check the batch numbers to see if they're included in the recall.
- Contact the retailer: If you have any questions or concerns, contact the retailer where you purchased the product.
The good news is that no illnesses have been reported yet, but it's always better to be safe than sorry. This is a reminder that it's important to always check the labels of food products and be aware of potential food safety risks.
Stay safe out there, folks!
