Lidl’s 1001 Delights Dubai Style Pistachio Ice Cream, sold in 300g tubs across Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland with a best-before of December 8, 2027, has been urgently recalled after it was found to contain undeclared cashew nuts. For anyone with a cashew allergy, a single spoonful could trigger a dangerous, even life-threatening, reaction. The Food Standards Agency has confirmed that point-of-sale notices will be placed in all affected Lidl stores, explaining the risk and what customers should do next.
Shoppers who have bought the ice cream are being told not to eat it under any circumstances, but to return it to Lidl for a full refund, with or without a receipt. Lidl has apologised and set up customer service lines for worried buyers, while Capri Sun has separately recalled certain Capri-Sun Orange multipacks mislabelled as Zero, posing a serious risk to people who must tightly control their sugar intake.
