Scottish firm urgently recalls multiple jam flavours over possible health risk
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) announced the recall in a new allergy alert.
A Scottish food firm has announced a major recall for some of its jams. It has been discovered that some of them may be "unsafe to eat."
Sarah Gray's, based in Cupar, Fife, offers a range of homemade preserves, chutneys and marmalades that have been made using local fruit and "years of knowledge."
However, the brand has now announced that 13 of its strawberry and champagne/prosecco jams pose a possible health risk since they contain sulphites, an ingredient not mentioned on the packaging.
This means that they are unsuitable for anyone with a sensitivity to sulphur dioxide and sulphites, which is why they have been advised not to eat them if they have purchased them.
An allergy alert posted to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has shared the full details of the jams recalled, with an assortment of jar sizes and dates affected.
Shoppers who have purchased any of the affected jars are being urged to return them to the store they were bought from to receive a full refund.
Meanwhile, Sarah Gray's has issued point of sale notices to all retail stores that sell the products. These will explain to customers the full details of the recall and what to do if they have purchased any of the affected jams.
To give readers the full details, find below all of the jams recalled by Sarah Gray's.
