DOZENS of dips, meal deal sandwiches and pasta salads have been recalled over fears they could pose a 'health risk' to some.
The 50 products urgently pulled off shop shelves may contain peanuts that aren't declared on the label, the Food Standards Agency (FSA) warned in an alert.
The items could be dangerous to any with nut allergy, putting them at risk of a dangerous allergic reaction.
Sold under several different brand names and across a range of stores, all the recalled dips, sandwiches and salads contain mustard powder, which may have traces of peanuts.
"This means these products are a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to peanuts," the FSA said.
"If you have bought any of the above products and have an allergy to peanuts, do not eat them," it added.
Two Dominos dip flavours are among the recalled items: the Dominos Garlic & Herb Dip, as well as the Honey & Mustard one.
Other sauces on the recall list include the Carlos Takeaway Garlic & Herb Dip, sold at Aldi.
There's also the SPAR Onion and Garlic Dip and their Sour Cream and Chive Dip.
Sold in convenience stores and off-licences, a number of SPAR sandwiches, wraps and pasta salads were pulled from shop shelves too.
Food can be recalled for a number of reasons, for example due to contamination with pathogens like listeria or salmonella that could give you food poisoning, or because of manufacturing faults, such as plastic or metal being found in the product.
Incorrect or missing allergen information can also lead to a recall, FSA guidance states.
When products are recalled, retailers remove them from shop shelves and ask customers to return them to the shop they bought them at for a full refund.
Other items included on the recent recall alert that may contain traces of peanuts include Fazilas wraps and Clayton Park sandwiches.
Peanut allergies are particularly common, affecting about one in 50 children in the UK and increasing in recent decades, according to Allergy UK.
It usually develops in early childhood but, occasionally, can appear in later life.
Peanut allergies tends to be persistent and only approximately one in five children outgrow their allergy, usually by the age of 10.
If you eat peanuts and have an allergy to the nut, symptoms tend to come on quickly, Anaphylaxis UK says.
Mild to moderate symptoms may include:
But some people may develop a more serious allergic reaction, called anaphylaxis.
This can affect the heart rhythm and blood pressure and cause difficulty breathing.
In some cases, anaphylaxis symptoms lead to collapse and unconsciousness and, on rare occasions, can be fatal - it's important to know how to recognise them and act quickly.
If you think you or your child may be allergic to peanuts, see your GP who can refer you to a specialist allergy clinic.
It's important to get a referral even if the symptoms were mild because it can be hard to tell if future allergic reactions could be more serious.
Dominos previously urged those with a peanut allergy to dispose of the dips mentioned on the recall alert and avoid consuming them.
The fast-food chain apologised for any concern this may cause and recommended that customers with queries visit their contact form here.
A Domino's spokesman said: "At Domino's Pizza, the quality of our products and the safety of our customers is the highest priority, particularly when it comes to allergens.
"We have become aware that some of our Garlic & Herb and Honey & Mustard dip may contain traces of peanut.
"This issue may impact both our 100g 'Big Dip' pots and the smaller, 25g, pots we provide with our pizzas.
"If you DO HAVE A PEANUT ALLERGY, please dispose of the dips and do not consume them.
If you DO NOT have a peanut allergy, no further action is required."
