Thirteen fruit pot products sold at six major British retailers have been recalled due to the risk of Salmonella contamination. The affected items, containing apples and kiwis, were distributed by Prepworld and sold at Tesco, Sainsbury's, M&S, Waitrose, Morrisons, and ASDA.
Products and dates affected
The recall includes a variety of fruit packs with best-before or use-by dates of June 23 or 24, 2026. Among them are ASDA Pink Lady Apple, Mango, Strawberry & Blueberry (220g), Morrisons Kiwi, Melon & Strawberries (220g), Tesco Melon, Kiwi & Strawberry (250g and 125g), Tesco Kiwi Fruit Pot (100g), Waitrose Pink Lady Apple and Grapes (115g), multiple M&S products, and several Sainsbury's items. A full list is available from the retailers.
Refund and safety advice
Shoppers who have purchased the recalled fruit are advised not to eat it and to return it to their nearest store for a full refund, even without a receipt. All stores will display notices informing customers of the recall. Tesco, ASDA, Morrisons, Sainsbury's, and M&S have all issued similar point-of-sale notices.
Salmonella symptoms
According to health officials, most people with Salmonella infection experience diarrhoea, fever, and stomach cramps. Other symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, chills, headache, and blood in the stool. Dehydration and exhaustion can occur as a side effect of these symptoms.
