Products that include wheat pose a serious risk to anyone with a gluten allergy, or more serious Coeliac Disease, which affects 1 in 100 Brits.
Earlier in 2018 many major supermarkets were forced to recall frozen goods owing to an outbreak of Listeria; a bacteria that poses a threat to pregnant women.
Yesterday, we revealed that campaign group Action on Sugar has called for a ban on freakshakes and milkshakes that contain more than 300 calories.
They claim the sickly concoctions contain "grotesque levels of sugar and calories" and are calling for them to be banned by fast food shops and restaurants across the UK.
Their survey found that some high street milkshakes contain a whopping 39 teaspoons of sugar which is "over 6 times the recommended daily amount of sugar for a 7 to 10 year old."
