Iceland has ongoing recalls for products sold in stores

Iceland shoppers could be at risk as a couple of products pose health and safety concerns.

Products have been recalled because of undeclared allergens and the possible presence of listeria monocytongenes.

The original item was recalled as early as 2022 but shoppers should double check they don't have it at home as the best before date is coming up.

Only the above product is affected by the recall warning.

Iceland said: "Some packs may have Iceland Takeaway Creamy Butter Chicken inside due to an incorrect sleeve.

"Iceland is recalling Iceland Chicken Bhuna product as it poses a potential risk to those people that have an allergy or intolerance to milk which is not declared on the label."

Anyone who still has the item can return it to any Iceland store where they will get a full refund.
