Heinz and Tesco are voluntarily recalling jars of Heinz By Nature baby food after one was found to contain sharp metal fragments.
The recall follows the discovery of two sharp pieces of metal fragments in a single tampered with jar earlier this week.
It involves Heinz By Nature 7+ months baby foods which are sold in 200g jars in Sweet & Sour Chicken, Mango Chicken Curry, Cottage Pie, Cheesy & Tomato Pasta Stars, Sunday Chicken Dinner, Spaghetti Bolognese, Winter Veggies & Lamb and Pasta Bake With Tuna varieties.
Only the jars in the 7+month range and purchased from Tesco are
affected. The same product and same batch codes at other retail stores
and in other packaging e.g. pouches are not affected.
An alert sent by the Food Standards Agency said the recall followed 'the discovery that a single jar of baby food had been tampered with'.
Consumers are advised not to use the jars bought from Tesco and to return them to the store they were purchased in for a full refund.
A statement from Heinz added: "Safety is our number one priority.
"Products in the range were removed from sale immediately and we are taking this voluntary recall action as a precaution."
Anyone with concerns can contact the Heinz Careline Team on 0800 731 1477.
