Greggs has recalled frozen chicken casseroles sold in Iceland after pieces of hard plastic were found in some packs.

The cakes pulled from the shelves cost £2 for a two-pack (306g) and have a best before date of 19 September 2022.

If you bought any of these products by the date above, Greggs has warned that eating them could be dangerous.

Buyers are advised to return the baked goods to the nearest Iceland for a refund. You shouldn’t need a receipt to get your money back.

No other data was included in the recall, nor does it apply to fresh chicken casseroles sold in Greggs stores.

In a note to customers, Greggs said, “This product may contain pieces of hard, dark-colored plastic.”

The company continued: “If you have purchased the above product, please do not consume it. Please contact your nearest Icelandic store for a full refund.

“This two-pack product is exclusive to Iceland and therefore the recall only applies to products purchased from Icelandic stores.

“No other products, datecodes or batches are affected. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience.”

When a supermarket product is recalled, you usually don’t need a receipt to get your money back.

However, if a recall affects a branded product, the manufacturer is usually responsible for the recall.

Information on all product recalls can be found on the Food Standards Agency and Chartered Trading Standards Institute websites.

You should also pay attention to recall notices in stores when they’ve pulled a product from the shelves.

Other recalls to watch out for are soups, which have been removed from Tesco stores over fears they may contain bits of metal.

The supermarket is pulling its Tesco chicken and vegetable cup soup with croutons priced at 80p.

The product affected by the recall has a best before date of October 2023 and a date code of 2098.

No other best before dates are included in the above recall. The soup comes in a pack of five sachets and weighs 110g.

The supermarket has also recalled a certain batch of Trewithen Dairy Unsalted Butter after some were found to contain “high levels” of E. coli bacteria.

The batch is Trewithen Dairy Unsalted Butter 250G with a best before date of 23rd May 2022 with batch code: G2 073.
