Oops! I’ve Purchased This… What Do I Do?
It goes without saying that anyone with a milk allergy or intolerance shouldn’t eat this. Take it back to your nearest Lidl and you’ll get a full refund of the product.
What Have Lidl Done To Take Action?
“Lidl is recalling the above products from customers and the relevant allergy support organisations have been contacted which will tell their members about the recall. The company has also issued a point-of-sale notice to its customers. These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the products.” FSA
So, mummies and daddies, rest assured that Lidl and the Food Standards Agency have taken the appropriate action to deal with this situation swiftly. These things happen from time to time, and the FSA will always issue an allergy warning notice when this happens to make consumers aware.
