Tesco and Asda will offer full refunds without receipts if bring popular snack back after recall
They are offering refunds at stores, even if shoppers don't have a receipt.
Some packets of the Myprotein double chocolate and caramel gooey filled cookies have been pulled as they contain wheat, which is not mentioned on the label.
The product has therefore been pulled over concerns that the snack could pose a risk to anyone with coeliac disease, or an allergy or intolerance to wheat or gluten.
Coeliac disease is an auto immune condition where sufferers cannot digest gluten.
THG Nutrition Limited which manufactures the product, said that the recall affects packets with best before dates between June 17, 2025 to July 16, 2026.
The product comes in pack sizes of 75g single cookies and boxes of 12 cookies.
Tesco said: "If you've bought an affected product(from Tesco), please don't eat it. Instead, return it to a Tesco store where a full refund or replacement will be given. No receipt is required."
Anyone who purchased the product online should contact Myprotein for a refund.
In a recall notice published online, THG Nutrition Limited said: "We are recalling Myprotein Gooey Filled Cookie, Double Chocolate and Caramel due to the presence of undeclared Wheat Protein in an ingredient supplied for the manufacture of this cookie.
"If you have bought Myprotein Gooey Filled Cookie, Double Chocolate and Caramel as detailed above, do not eat it if you have an allergy to wheat."
In a separate statement, Myprotein said: "Out of an abundance of caution, we're voluntarily recalling the double chocolate and caramel gooey filled cookie, due to the presence of an undeclared allergen, wheat.
"If you purchased the product from one of our retail partners, please return the product or bring your receipt to the point of purchase or local store for a full refund.
"It's important to note that only a very small portion of Myprotein products are produced externally. The vast majority of Myprotein products are made in-house at our own state-of-the-art facilities.
"This ensures full control over quality and safety across our product range. Your safety is our top priority, and we're working closely with our manufacturing partner to understand how this happened and to make sure it doesn't happen again."

Tesco giving away free food at stores this summer
Children will be able to get free fruit at the checkout at branches of Tesco during the summer holiday as part of a new campaign announced by the retailer. The initiative, which will run from August 4 to August 17, will see the supermarket chain give away an estimated 3.5 million apples over the two-week period. Tesco has launched the campaign, which has been backed by the Government, in response to figures showing fewer than one in 10 children and one in five adults eat the recommended five-a-day. Heath and social care secretary, Wes Streeting, said: 'Obesity has doubled since the 1990s and costs our NHS £11 billion a year. "Unless we curb the rising tide of cost and demand, the NHS risks becoming unsustainable. But we can't do this alone. 'The declining health of the nation requires a national mission, working with all parts of our society – from industry to influencers – to reverse the decline and make sure that kids today grow up to be part of the healthiest generation ever. 'Our brilliant supermarkets already do so much work for our communities and are trying to make their stores healthier, and we want to work with them and other businesses to create a level playing field.' In addition to the free fruit at the checkouts, Tesco will also offer around four million customers the opportunity to earn personalised Clubcard stamps on fresh fruit and veg, which can be converted into bonus Clubcard points and vouchers to spend in store, while millions of customers will also be able to earn extra points through new Clubcard Challenges on frozen fruit and veg, beans, and pulses. The campaign builds on the Stronger Starts Fruit & Veg for Schools which has seen free fruit and vegetables and other resources provided to schools in areas where there is a higher-than-average free school meal ratio. Ashwin Prasad, Tesco's UK CEO, said: 'We understand that for many, there are barriers that make healthy eating feel hard. "We want to help our customers make small changes that amount to big health benefits for themselves and their families. 'That's why we're setting out to make healthy choices easier every day, starting with new offers and support for families in store this summer. 'We're bringing customers new ways to earn Clubcard points and vouchers as a fun and engaging way to help them towards their five-a-day, on top of new and existing great value offers on healthy staples.'
