Shoppers have been warned not to eat apple and kiwi packs sold at six British retailers due to the risk of Salmonella.
As many as 13 fruit pot products sold at Tesco, Sainsbury’s, M&S, Waitrose, Morrisons and ASDA have all been recalled.
Salmonella was identified in the apple and kiwi in the packs, which are distributed by Prepworld.
Anyone who has bought the pots has been advised not to eat them and return them to their nearest store.

What are the symptoms of salmonella?
Most people with salmonella infection have diarrhoea, fever, and stomach cramps.
Other symptoms can include:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Chills
- Headache
- Blood in the stool
A side effect of these other symptoms could include dehydration and exhaustion if you aren’t properly sleeping.
All stores that sold the fruit packs will display notices informing customers of the recall.
All items involved carry best-before or use-by dates of 23 or 24 June.
Tesco has advised shoppers who have bought the recalled fruit not to eat it and instead return it to any Tesco store where a full refund will then be issued.
Asda told customers they would issue a full refund for the affected produce, even if you don’t have a receipt.
Morrisons, Sainsburys and M&S all issued similar point of sales notices, asking customers to return the fruit to their nearest stores for a full refund, even without a receipt.
