Food safety recall round-up 28 July - 3 August 2017
Wheat allergy concerns in sweets
Finland: His & Hers Oy has recalled sweets that contain wheat not noted in the list of ingredients.
'Warhead Sour twist candy, 99g' with date 13 OCT 2018 has been on the market since March 2017 in Vantaalla, Kuopiossa, Porvoossa and Turussa.
Wheat flour has been missed from the Finnish/Swedish list of ingredients, but is mentioned in the "may contain small amounts" allergy warning. The labeling error gives a false impression of the amount of wheat in the product and can pose a serious risk to consumers with such an allergy.
