Recall details: 168 Express Ltd is recalling multiple Jelly cup products because they contain Carrageenan, Sodium Alginate and Konjac that are not permitted as an ingredient in jelly confectionery as they present a choking hazard.
The recalled products are:
- XZL Strong mixed jelly (360g)
- XZL Jelly in school bag (600g)
These products were distributed in England, Wales and Scotland. If you have bought any of the above products do not eat it. Instead, return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund.
Choking Hazard: The products contain Carrageenan, Sodium Alginate and Konjac gelling agents which can present a choking hazard due to the consistency, solubility, shape, size and manner of consumption of the food. The product can be projected from the cup or capsule in one piece by exerting pressure at the tip and therefore can cause choking hazard.
