Urgent recall: Convenience food Durra Falafel Mix by Goodies Foods Mediterranean poses "possible health risk"

A falafel mix is being recalled as it contains ingredients not listed on the packaging that could spark allergies. Durra Falafel Mix, produced by Goodies Foods Mediterranean, is being taken off shelves as it contains sesame - which is not mentioned on the label. The Food Standards Agency said the mistake means the product is "a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to sesame".

"Goodies Foods Mediterranean is recalling the above product from customers and has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall," the FSA said.

"The company has issued a point-of-sale notice to its customers. These notices explain to customers why the product a is being recalled and tell them what to do if they have bought the product."

Advice from the FSA to anyone with a sesame allergy who has bought the product is not to eat it and to instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a refund.
