A warning has been issued to shoppers as a popular ready meal sold in Irish supermarkets has been urgently recalled amid concerns it could pose a serious health risk to some customers.<\/p>\n

The Food Safety Authority of Ireland<\/a> (FSAI) announced on Friday that a batch of Fit Foods Beef & Mash with Pepper Sauce has been recalled<\/a> as it contains a number of ingredients which are not listed on the label.<\/p>\n

According to the food safety watchdog, certain batches of the popular ready meal, which are sold in Tesco<\/a> and Dunnes Stores<\/a>, contains sesame, soya and celery which are not declared in the list of ingredients.<\/p>\n

The FSAI warned that this may make the batch unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of sesame, soya and \/ or celery and therefore, these consumers have been urged not to eat the implicated batch.<\/p>\n

A recall has now been issued for batches of 400g packs of Fit Foods Beef & Mash with Pepper Sauce with a batch code of 2528101 and a use by date of 20\/10\/2025.<\/p>\n

This latest recall comes just hours after the FSAI issued an urgent “do not eat” warning<\/a> for a popular range of chicken nuggets; goujons and fillets sold in supermarkets all over the country.<\/p>\n

The specific batches of chicken being recalled include Pekish chicken goujons (all use by dates up to and including 14\/10\/2025); Pekish chicken nuggets (all use by dates up to and including 16\/10\/2025) and Pekish breaded chicken fillets (all use by dates up to and including 18\/10\/2025).<\/p>\n

The reason the products are being recalled by the FSAI is because the labels include incorrect cooking instructions.<\/p>\n

Retailers are requested to remove the implicated batches from sale and display recall notices at point-of-sale.<\/p>\n

Wholesalers\/distributors are requested to contact their affected customers and recall the implicated batches and provide a point-of-sale recall notice to their retailer customers.<\/p>\n
