The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is responsible for recalling goods for a variety of reasons, including undisclosed allergens or the discovery of non-edible materials in the products.
Generally getting a refund is simple and doesn't often require a receipt.
TescoIn Tesco, several Christmas dinner favourites have been recalled.
A 125g pack of 10 Cooked Beef Slices which have the wrong use by date was the first to be listed.
It was marked as January 24, rather than December 24 due to a labelling error.
They are also continuing to recall their 300g pack of Red Cabbage and Apple due to incorrect labelling.
The festive mix should have had a use by date of December 11, when instead it says December 29.
Customers can get a full refund on their recalled items.
