This comes after Aldi and Tesco issued 'do not eat' warnings for various products this week.

Tesco recalled its Tesco Sandwich Pickle due to the possible presence of “small pieces of glass”.

The affected Sandwich Pickle comes in a 295g jar, has a batch code of 3254 and a best before date of September 11, 2025.

Aldi shoppers have also been warned not to eat two pork products from the supermarket as they are “unsafe to eat”.

The two pork products have been labelled incorrectly, with the wrong use-by dates used.

The affected products are the Ashfields Grill Chinese Pork Loin Steaks and BBQ Pork Loin Steaks.

The recall affects 500g packs of the pork with use by dates of June 22.
