食品伙伴網導讀：2009年6月16日，英國Asda 公司召回Pick 'n' Mix墨西哥米產品，原因是包裝標簽錯誤。
原文報道：
Asda has withdrawn some of its Pick ‘n’ Mix Mexican Rice because the product packaging has been packed with Mexican Paella, which means the product contains milk, shellfish, fish and wheat gluten. These allergens are not mentioned on the product label, which makes the product a possible health risk for people who are allergic to or intolerant of milk, shellfish, fish and wheat gluten.
The Agency has issued an Allergy Alert.
If you have an allergy to or intolerance of milk, shellfish, fish and gluten, you are advised not to eat this product.
Product details
The product being withdrawn is:
- Asda Pick ‘n’ Mix Mexican Rice, 210g
- Use by: 20 June 2009
Asda has withdrawn the affected product from sale. In addition, the company has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will inform their members of the withdrawal. Notices will be displayed in stores, explaining the reasons why the product has been withdrawn. If you have bought the product, you can return it for a full refund. You do not need your receipt.
If you would like any further information, telephone Asda Customer Relations on 0500 100 055.
No other Asda products are known to be affected.
Allergy alerts
Sometimes there will be a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold. Then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). Sometimes foods have to be withdrawn or recalled if there is a risk to consumers because the allergy labelling is missing or incorrect or if there is any other food allergy risk.
In such situations the Agency will issue an Allergy Alert. It is also possible to subscribe to an email alert system to receive automatic messages whenever Allergy Alerts are issued. Click on 'Get alerts' in the box at the bottom of this page to find more details.
You can get details of all the latest allergy alerts as soon as they're issued by getting the details sent as a SMS text message direct to your mobile phone.
