Customers will receive a full refund when they return the affected Easter Eggs

Consumers across the UK have been warned not to eat certain Tony's Chocolonely Easter eggs due to possible metal contamination.

This follows a recall of two Tony's Chocoloney chocolate bars, sold in Tesco, Morrisons, Waitrose and other UK supermarkets.


The Food Standards Agency (FSA) issued an alert that Tony's Chocolonely has recalled two Large Hollow Easter Eggs.

The products have been pulled from supermarket shelves in the UK, including Sainsbury's and Asda.
