What to do now
Small pieces of glass may be in Crosta & Mollica Sugo Alla Norma Aubergine, Ricotta and Tomato. They can be hard to see and cause injury to the mouth or throat.
- Do not eat it and do not try to pick out or strain any fragments.
- Wrap it so that nobody can cut themselves on it in the bin.
- Return it to the shop where you bought it, where you should get your money back, or bin it.
- Check the freezer and cupboards for other packs with the same details, including anything you have decanted or portioned.
Why it matters. A foreign body such as glass can cut the mouth, throat or gut. Because fragments are often small and clear, inspecting the food is not a reliable test.

- difficulty swallowing
Get help urgently
- bleeding from the mouth, vomiting blood, or dark, tar-like poo — go to A&E or call 999
