Buram Cerezli Nuts in Syrup were recalled FSAThis is because they may have been contaminated, causing a risk for anyone who consumes the products.
The Food Standards Agency explained: "Leo’s Import Export & Trading Ltd recalls Buram Nuts in Syrup because it may contain foreign bodies.
"The product also contains apricot kernels which pose a risk to human health because of the release of hydrogen cyanide when consumed, making the product unsafe to eat.
"This product recall has been updated because of the risk of hydrogen cyanide release from the apricot kernels and has been extended to include all best before dates."
Ingesting hydrogen cyanide can cause nausea and vomiting or even cause a risk of seizures or coma. The manufacturers shared a statement with advice on what customers should do if they are in possession of the affected batches.
It said: "The above product (batch and best before date as above) has been withdrawn from sale because of possible contamination with foreign bodies warning received from the manufacturer.
"Please do not consume this product. Any customer who has bought this product can return it to the shop they originally purchased the product from or to Leo's Import Export & Trading Ltd for a full refund."
This comes as meat products were pulled from shelves and declared "unsafe" to eat.
