The Big Four supermarkets are recalling specific pouches of Uncle Ben’s Brown Basmati rice.
The product is made by Mars Food UK and is stocked in the main supermarkets, as well as on Ocado and in independent stores, so any shoppers who have bought the branded rice should check their cupboards.
The ready-to-heat rice pouches are being recalled over safety fears as they may contain pieces of glass.
The Food Standards Agency issued an alert which stated: “If you have bought the above product do not eat it. Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund, or please dispose of it and contact Uncle Ben’s consumer care line on 0800-952-1234 for a full refund.”
