Shoppers have been urged “not to eat” certain meats that should be returned to the stores.
Sainsbury’s
Sainsbury’s recalled Taste the Difference Spanish Chorizo Iberico Ring as the meat product could be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes.
Packages affected include all those that have use-by dates up to January 16, 2024.
Sainsbury’s said: “Listeria monocytogenes has been found in some of the products.
“Symptoms caused by this organism can be similar to flu and include high temperature, muscle ache or pain, chills, feeling or being sick and diarrhoea.”

Additional vulnerable groups include:
- Pregnant women and their unborn babies
- Babies less than one month old
- People who have weakened immune systems.
Sainsbury’s advised its customers to “not eat” Taste the Difference Spanish Chorizo Iberico Ring.

Lidl
Lidl has also issued two alerts for meat products: the Braemoor Duck Breast Fillet and XXL Ocean Sea Cooked and Peeled Large Prawns.
