Aldi apologised that it did not meet its "normal high standards", and thanked customers for their cooperation.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) explained why food recalls occur. It is important that they are taken seriously.
The FSA said: "If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product).

"The FSA issues Product Withdrawal Information Notices and Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food. In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued.
"This provides local authorities with details of specific action to be taken on behalf of consumers."
Aldi also announced the return of a Specialbuys range perfect for pet owners.
