Aldi has recalled chicken which shows the wrong use-by date on the packaging

Aldi shoppers have been warned about kebabs that have a mistake on the packaging.

Anyone who has purchased the food should not eat it and can return to stores for a refund.

The use-by date listed is for July but this is incorrect, meaning the products are already out of date and should not be consumed.
