M&M's containing an unauthorised ingredient and contaminated Missguided makeup are on the list of items which retailers have recalled due to health and safety concerns.
Trading Standards has issued warnings about several items which should be returned to the retailer for a full refund.
Mars Wrigley has issued a recall for its M&M's Crispy products due to the presence of a genetically modified organism (GMO) in an ingredient produced by one of its suppliers.
Further, there is no GMO authorised for the ingredient under UK law and so the products must be recalled. No other Mars Wrigley brands, products, batch codes, or best before dates are affected.
