The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has updated its investigation into peanut contamination in mustard ingredients. A precautionary recall now applies to all products containing mustard imported by FGS Ingredients Ltd, regardless of whether peanuts have been detected.
This extensive recall is expected to affect hundreds of products in the coming days, including ready meals, snacks, curry powders, seasonings, and spice blends. Alert recipients should prepare for an increased volume of notifications.
Advice for individuals with peanut allergies remains unchanged: avoid all foods containing mustard, mustard powder, or mustard flour due to potential peanut contamination.
Given the anticipated high volume of alerts will cease posting about this specific recall to prevent confusion and you are encouraged to look at the list of products regularly updated by the Food Standards Agency.
