What to do now

Pieces of metal may be in Arran Fine Foods Caramelised Red Onion Chutney. They are a choking and injury risk.

  1. Do not eat it and do not try to find the metal yourself.
  2. Put it out of reach of children.
  3. Return it to the shop where you bought it, where you should get your money back, or bin it.
  4. Check the freezer and cupboards for other packs with the same details, including anything you have decanted or portioned.

Why it matters. Metal fragments can break teeth or cut the mouth and throat. Processing lines use metal detectors, and a recall like this usually means a fault was found after products had left.

Symptoms and when to get help

Look out for

  • pain in the mouth or throat
  • a chipped or broken tooth

Get help urgently

  • bleeding, vomiting blood or severe stomach pain — go to A&E or call 999

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.

Getting your money back

Recalled food can be returned to the shop it came from for a full refund. Supermarkets and most independent shops do this without a receipt, because the recall applies to the product, not to your purchase.

If you bought it online or on a delivery, contact the retailer through your account or customer services and tell them the product is under an FSA recall.
