Tayto has recalled several of its products after a golf ball seemingly made its way into some crisp packets.
Tayto Snacks said some products with best before dates in late August have been taken off shelves.
In a statement, the company said, “fragments of a golf ball were found to be present in a small number of packs.”
“We believe this material may have inadvertently been harvested with our potatoes,” it said.
The company said it issued a ‘precautionary recall’ in the “best interest of consumers”.
