A significant health risk has prompted a recall of a popular breakfast item for children. Brioche Pasquier’s Pitch Chocolate and Hazelnut Brioches are being recalled due to the potential presence of hard white plastic.

Tesco and Asda Recall: Health Concerns for Kids’ Breakfast

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) announced the urgent recall affecting six-packs of these brioches, specifically those with a best before date of March 4. Customers who have purchased this product are advised to return it immediately.

Details of the Recall

  • Product Name: Pitch Chocolate and Hazelnut Brioches
  • Batch Code: UK 034
  • Weight: 225g (6 x 37.5g)
  • Retailers: Tesco, Asda, and Ocado
  • Health Risk: Potential presence of hard white plastic

The FSA indicated that due to the likelihood of plastic contamination, the product has become unsafe for consumption. As a precaution, Brioche Pasquier has confirmed that no other batches or products are affected.

How to Respond

If you have this product at home, do not consume it. Instead, you should contact Brioche Pasquier’s customer care team for assistance. They can be reached through their website or via email at [email protected].

This recall is part of a broader trend concerning children’s food safety. Just recently, several baby formulas were recalled after reports of illness in 36 children. Products from Aptamil and Cow & Gate were pulled due to a dangerous toxin known as cereulide.

Conclusion

Parents are urged to check their kitchen shelves carefully. Ensure that no affected products are fed to children to maintain their safety.
