Several products containing mustard powder have been recalled because they may contain peanuts.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) explained that these products are a "possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to peanuts".
The products, from FGS Ingredients Ltd, are sold under several different brand names at several different retail stores.
The FSA stated: "FGS Ingredients Ltd is recalling the above products and have been advised to contact the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.
"These products are sold under several different brand names at several different retail stores.

"Point of sale notices will be displayed where the products were sold. These notices explain to customers why the products are being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the products."
For the notices, Britons can consult the Food Standards Agency's allergy alerts.
Consumers were warned: "If you have bought any of the above products and have an allergy to peanuts, do not eat them."
While food recalls aren't too common, they must be taken seriously when they do occur.
The FSA explained: "Sometimes there will be 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 Then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product).
"Sometimes foods have to be withdrawn or recalled if there is a risk to consumers because the allergy labelling is missing or incorrect or if there is any other food allergy risk.
"When there is a food allergy risk, the FSA will issue an Allergy Alert."
The products pose a risk to those with a peanut allergy. Allergy UK said: "Signs and symptoms usually occur within minutes of contact with peanuts, but can also occur up to one hour later. Most allergic reactions are mild but they can also be moderate or severe. Anaphylaxis (pronounced ana-fil-laxis) is the most severe form of allergic reaction which can be life-threatening.
"Mild to moderate symptoms include an itchy mouth, tongue and throat, swelling of lips, around the eyes or face, red raised itchy rash (often called nettle rash, hives or urticaria), vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhoea, and a runny nose and sneezing."
"Any one or more of the following symptoms are a sign of a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) and should be treated as a medical emergency. If available, adrenaline should be given without delay and an ambulance called with the call operator informed that it is anaphylaxis.
"Severe symptoms of anaphylaxis include swelling of the tongue and/or throat, difficulty in swallowing or speaking, change in voice (hoarse voice), wheeze (whistling noise) or persistent cough, difficult or noisy breathing, dizziness, collapse, loss of consciousness (due to a drop in blood pressure), pale, floppy, sudden sleepiness in babies."
