Popular supermarket chain recalls their brand of lasagne due to health concerns.
Co-op supermarket has issued a recall for their own-brand lasagne, the Irresistible Luxury Lasagne Al Forno, as a precautionary measure. The reason behind this recall is the presence of undeclared mustard and sulphites in a specific batch with a use by date of November 17, 2024. The Food Standards Agency has deemed this to be a possible health risk for individuals who have allergies or intolerances to these ingredients.

According to the recall notice, consuming this product can be harmful to those with mustard allergies or sensitivities to sulphur dioxide and sulphites. As a result, Co-op advises customers who have purchased this lasagne to dispose of it immediately and seek a refund or replacement at their local store. While rare, severe cases of mustard allergies can lead to death, making it crucial for individuals to pay attention to this recall.

Allergy UK has identified mustard as one of the 14 major allergens, but the prevalence of mustard allergies in the UK is currently unknown. In most cases, a mustard allergy can cause hives and vomiting, but it can also result in more severe symptoms such as anaphylaxis. This is why individuals with a mustard allergy may experience swelling in their throat, tongue, and airways, making it difficult to breathe. Anaphylaxis UK also notes that individuals may suddenly start wheezing, feeling dizzy, faint, sleepy, or confused after coming into contact with mustard. In some cases, this can also lead to pale, clammy skin and loss of consciousness.

In extreme cases, an allergic reaction to mustard can cause a dramatic drop in blood pressure, leaving the person feeling weak and floppy. They may also have a sense that something terrible is happening. It is essential to take this recall seriously, as in rare cases, it can even result in death. If you or someone you know has a mustard allergy, it is crucial to avoid consuming this product and seek medical attention immediately if any symptoms occur.
