What to do now
Farmfoods Ultimate Keralan Chicken Curry contains crustaceans, but this is not shown correctly on the label. That makes it a possible health risk for anyone who is allergic to or intolerant of crustaceans.
- If you are allergic to or intolerant of crustaceans, do not eat it.
- Make sure children, carers and anyone you shop for know not to eat it.
- You can return it to Farmfoods for your money back.
- Only the packs listed below are affected, so check your pack before throwing it away.
Why it matters. Fish, crustaceans (such as prawns and crab) and molluscs (such as mussels and squid) are separate allergens, and reactions to shellfish can be severe.
Symptoms and when to get help
Look out for
- an itchy, tingling mouth
- a raised itchy rash (hives)
- swelling of the lips, face or eyes
- stomach pain or being sick
Get help urgently
- swelling of the tongue or throat, difficulty breathing or swallowing, wheezing, feeling faint, or collapse — use an adrenaline auto-injector if you have one and call 999, saying it is anaphylaxis
This is general information based on NHS public guidance, not medical advice. In an emergency call 999. For urgent advice use NHS 111 (NHS 24 on 111 in Scotland) or, in Northern Ireland, your GP or out-of-hours service.
