Supermarket chain Aldi recalls prawns in salmonella health alert

Food Standards Scotland (FSS) has issued a recall notice on two batches of Aldi’s Specially Selected Tikka King Prawns in Scotland and Northumberland which it says could contain salmonella bacteria.

A spokesman for FSS said: “Aldi is recalling the affected product from its customers and displaying point of sale notices in stores explaining to customers the reason for recall and the actions they can take if they have bought the affected product.

“No other Aldi products are known to be affected.”

FSS has advised all consumers who have purchased the product not to eat it and instead return it to the store where it was purchased for a full refund.
