A popular child’s cereal is being recalled amid fears it may include lumps of sugar which could be a choking hazard.
Cereal Partners UK and Ireland are recalling Nestlé Frosted Shreddies because they may contain small hard lumps of sugar which have formed in the product. This makes the product unsafe to eat and may present a choking hazard.

Batch codes can be found on the top of the product packaging. Customers are requested not to eat any products with the above descriptions and batch codes. Instead,they are asked to return them to the store from where they were bought for a full refund. Alternatively, they are asked to dispose of the product and contact Nestlé on their official website with a photo of the batch code.
The recall was voluntarily issued on Friday (February 28), and the firm has apologised to customers.
