Urgent warning as popular supermarket product RECALLED over salmonella fears
A POPULAR peanut butter product has been recalled after fears it could be contaminated with salmonella.

Salmonella can cause severe food poisoning, and symptoms include fever, diarrhoea, and abdominal cramps.
Symptoms can flare up within a few hours of eating the contaminated product but in some cases it can take a few weeks for illness to begin, according to the NHS.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has published an alert on its website issuing a warning to customers on May 27.
Affected bars have a best before date of 09 December 2023, and 23 October 2023.
