Cow & Gate Sweet Squash  and Chicken from 7 month+ 200g jar baby food recalled

14/10/2014

Cow & Gate has recalled 200g jars of its ‘Sweet Squash & Chicken from 7 months+’ baby food. The label incorrectly shows ‘no added egg’ and ‘gluten free’ in a tick box, although both egg and wheat are correctly shown in the ingredient list. This means the product is a health risk to anyone with an allergy or intolerance to wheat (gluten), and or an allergy or intolerance to egg.

Product name: Cow & Gate Sweet Squash & Chicken from 7 months+

Pack size: 200g                                                                                                                    

Best before end: 01/07/16; 22/07/16; 21/08/16; 10/09/16

No other Cow & Gate products are known to be affected.


Allergens: wheat (gluten) and egg

This product contains wheat and egg, making it a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to wheat or egg.

If you have bought the above product and your baby has an allergy or intolerance to wheat or egg, do not feed it to your baby. Instead, return it to store for a full refund. Further information is available by contacting Cow & Gate’s careline on 0800 977 4000 or visiting their website www.cowandgate.co.uk

The company has recalled the product from customers and has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall. A copy of the Allergy Alert issued by Cow & Gate is attached.

Sometimes there will be a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold. Then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product). Sometimes foods have to be withdrawn or recalled if there is a risk to consumers because the allergy labelling is missing or incorrect or if there is any other food allergy risk. When there is a food allergy risk, the FSA will issue an Allergy Alert.
