Lidl and Sainsbury's are among supermarkets that have recently recalled products, and there's alerts out for other food items too.
The Sun has put together a guide to all the products shoppers have been urged to return to stores for full refunds in the last few weeks.
Customers should check their cupboards to see if they have any of the items listed below, as they could be dangerous for your health or cause an allergic reaction.
If you do have any, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) advises that you don't eat them.
Allergic reactions could cause itching and sneezing or even a anaphalactic shock, which can be deadly, and listeria and salmonella could also make you severely ill.
National Trust Biscuits
Shoppers who bought the National Trust's Biscuits Duo Pack in either the White Chocolate & Raspberry and Oat & Apple Crumble flavours, or the Orange & Almond and Chocolate & Hazelnut variety are being asked to return them for a full refund.
Honey and Oat biscuits
Farmhouse Biscuits Ltd is asking people to return its Honey and Oat treats which are on sale at Asda to stores as they could trigger allergic reactions because they contain wheat which isn't mentioned on the label.
Montezuma's Chocolates
Montezuma's Chocolates is recalling its ‘Great British Puddings Truffle Collection’ because it may contain small pieces of plastic in the lemon meringue truffle.
The presence of plastic makes this product unsafe to eat and presents a safety risk.

from its stores in Northern Ireland because it contains Listeria Monocytogenes.

Happy Jackson Chocolates
Creme d’Or is recalling Happy Jackson ‘Congratulations! You Totally Did It!’, ‘Happy Birthday Oh Gorgeous One!’ and ‘Great Big Box of Awesomeness’ assorted chocolates because some of the chocolates contain natural pistachio flavouring which is not mentioned on the label.
These are sold at John Lewis.
They pose a risk for people with nut allergies.

Sainsbury's has urgently recalled its in-store bakery All Butter Croissants - because they contain nuts that could trigger deadly allergic reactions.
