Chicken schnitzels from Woolies recalled over allergy fears
Ingham’s gluten-free chicken schnitzels have been recalled from sale in Victoria amid concerns they contain gluten.
The 440g packs of chilled Ingham’s Gluten Free Chicken Schnitzel on sale at Woolworths were recalled on Wednesday by the company which feared that if eaten, consumers might suffer an allergic reaction.
“The recall is due to incorrect packaging (Southern Style Tenders were packaged incorrectly in Gluten Free Schnitzel labelled tray) which has resulted in the presence of undeclared allergen – gluten,” the company said.
“Consumers who have a gluten allergy or intolerance should not consume these products.”
The suspect product has been on shelves since last Friday and have a best-before date of April 8.
Buyers should return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund.
The recall comes just days after popular yoghurt manufacturer Chobani recalled part of its product line due to a production mishap affecting its packaging.
Customers complained after noticing the sticker on the side of some of the Chobani Greek Yoghurt’s products advertised as a “Lemon meringue tang”, while the lid indicated the contents were “Almond coco loco”.
