Asda and Sainsbury’s have issued an urgent food recall of a selection of brown rolls after they pose a health risk.
The major supermarkets have warned people with a soya allergy to not consume the product.
Food Standards Scotland (FSS) also alerted Britons of the recall of the brown rolls.
It wrote online: “McGhee’s Family Bakers are recalling packs of 6 Scottish Brown Rolls. Due to a packaging error, several packs include white rolls which contain soya. This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to soya.”
