Tesco has also issued a recall to shoppers stating that a cushion sold in the supermarket fails to meet safety requirements.

The Me to You Hugs and Kisses Cushion, manufactured by Carte Blanche Greetings, has been pulled from shelves with immediate effect.

Tesco explained that the recall was initiated because the cushion "failed safety testing and doesn't meet UK fire safety standards", although it did not share the specific issue.

This concern requires swift attention from customers who have purchased the item.
