The boxes have best before dates of 8 February to 16 February 2009.


The company said: “No illnesses have been reported in connection with this issue to date. There is very low risk of illness when preparation directions on box are followed and product is not consumed raw or undercooked.”


Quaker is said to be recovering the small number of affected boxes, with many not yet reaching shop shelves.
