Latest News About Fruit Pouches Recalled Over Plastic Bits

Several UK retailers have pulled batches of kids’ fruit pouches from shelves after checks found possible plastic bits inside. Shops in every part of the country affected. Tesco, Sainsbury’s and Asda have already yanked the items as a careful step. People buying these packs should look at the pack and return anything suspicious. The Food Standards Agency issued the notice but notes no one maker is at fault. They confirm there have been no reported illnesses. Stores are now backing the inquiry into the plastic source. Parents across the country have been told to look through store-cupboard supplies as the probe continues. Some pouches may show nothing wrong, so shoppers are urged to match batch codes online before serving. Phone lines are running for anyone worried about a child’s snack already eaten. Retailers are offering full refunds without a receipt on returned items.
