The regulator has issued “do not eat” warnings for many items it says pose a risk to customers.

If you have purchased any of the products below, do not eat them.

Instead, return them to the store and you’ll get a full refund – even without your receipt.

Cheese

Sainsbury’s has issued a recall for Mexican-style Cheddar with a best before date of June 12, June 22 and June 23.

The affected products have a pack size of 200g.

Oh my God! products

Oh my God! has recalled some Pakora and Falafel Sweet Potato products because they may contain gluten that is not stated on the label.

Here are the products you need to return and their best before dates:

If you have purchased the items then the FSA recommends contacting Gosh! on hello@goshfood.com for a full refund.

What are my rights to the refund?

If you are returning a recalled product, your right to a refund depends on whether the defect made the product unsafe.

Sometimes a business will repair the product, such as installing a new part. But this should be done for you.

If a defect makes a product unsafe to use — and difficult to correct — the Consumer Guarantees Act says you may have the right to refuse the product and request a replacement or refund.

Tesco and Superdrug have previously had to urgently recall several products due to concerns they may contain metal fragments.

The product recall applies to Tesco’s whey proteins in strawberry and chocolate flavors.
