Lidl issues urgent recall for beer AGAIN as customers warned not to drink it

LIDL has issued yet ANOTHER urgent recall of beer products sold in its stores.

The budget supermarket swiftly retracted packs of beer it had for sale at the start of the month.

Now DAYS later it is pulling more stock from the shelves.

Lidl’s recalled batch of Starovice Czech Lager is not safe for shoppers to consume, as it contains sulphur dioxide, not mentioned on the label.

That means it is a possible health risk for anyone with a sensitivity to sulphur dioxide or sulphites.

But shoppers can return the booze to the store and get a full refund.

When the recall was first announced shoppers were urged to look out for best before dates of October 16, 2022 on the 500ml packs.

Now, all dates up to and including December 23, 2022, make up the contaminated line that consumers have been urged to avoid.

Customers should check the beer’s label to see if they’ve purchased an affected product.

If that’s the case, take it back to your local Lidl store, to get your money back.

Don’t worry if you didn’t keep the receipt, as you won’t have to show this to return any of the affected items – you’ll still be entitled to a full refund.

Lidl has placed notices around its stores to let customers know about the recall too.

On the notice, Lidl apologised for any inconvenience caused.

But any customers with queries or futher concerns can contact its Customer Services on 0370 444 1234 or [email protected].

It wouldn’t be the first time the retailer has had to hastily withdraw products from its shelves this year.

Lidl was forced to recall a popular savoury snack after it emerged the product could contain salmonella, just months ago.

Shoppers had to return its own-brand 200g packets of Alesto Californian roasted and salted pistachios that had a Best Before date of October 4, 2022.

Problems with food products will often crop up, meaning they shouldn’t be sold.

But shops can recall items for any number of reasons, including allergy mislabelling, food poisoning risks or other contamination.

Greggs fans for example, were urged to return chicken bakes sold in Iceland over fears they contained pieces of plastic.

While a major salmonella outbreak affected thousands of Kinder products last month, leaving chocolate fans without their favourites to chomp down on.
