According to food safety officials, a popular pasta sauce sold at Waitrose has been recalled due to concerns that it may contain pieces of glass. The affected product is a 340g jar of Crosta & Mollica's Sugo Alla Norma Aubergine, Ricotta and Tomato sauce, a UK-based Italian food brand. The Food Standards Agency has issued a warning, stating that consuming the sauce could pose a safety risk.
If you have purchased this product, the agency advises against consuming it and instead recommends returning it to the store where it was purchased for a full refund. It is unclear how the glass ended up in the sauce, but officials have confirmed that the impacted jar was only sold at Waitrose stores in England, Scotland, and Wales. In light of this recall, Crosta & Mollica has requested that customers return the sauce jar.
In a statement to consumers, the company has asked shoppers to refrain from consuming the product and to package it up for return. The affected batch has a code of Y008B and a best-before date of January 8, 2027. If needed, customers can contact Crosta & Mollica via phone or email for further assistance. The company has expressed regret for the inconvenience caused by this recall.
It is important to note that a recall does not necessarily mean that the product will be permanently removed from store shelves and online websites. However, at the time of this writing, the Sugo Alla Norma Aubergine, Ricotta and Tomato sauce is listed as "not available" on the Waitrose website. The product description highlights the use of high-quality ingredients, such as sun-ripened tomatoes, crumbled ricotta salata, and fried aubergine, in making this beloved Italian dish.
