Aldi is urgently recalling a popular chocolate snack over fears of a serious 'health risk'. The Food Standards Agency said packs of Dairyfine Crispy Choc Um’s may contain peanuts, them making a "possible health risk" to nut allergy sufferers. Anyone who has bought the product and has an allergy to peanuts has been urged not to eat it, and instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund. The recall applies to all 121g packs, and is not limited to certain best before dates. People who have bought the product and have further questions are asked to get in touch with Aldi customer service. A recall notice issued by Aldi today reads: "As a precautionary measure, our supplier is recalling Dairyfine Crispy Choc Um's because it may contain peanuts. "Customers are asked to return this product to their nearest store, where a full refund will be given. We apologise that this product did not meet our normal high standards and thank you for your co-operation." A separate urgent product recall has meanwhile been issued for Halloween treats sold in Irish supermarkets , including Lidl and Aldi , due to an undeclared allergen. The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has warned that Rose Halloween Spooky Tea Cakes, which were mispacked with Rose Orchard Tea Cakes, contain egg - an ingredient not mentioned on the label. The FSAI stated: "The above batches of Rose Halloween Spooky Tea Cakes were mispacked with Rose Orchard Tea Cakes . The product contains egg , which is not mentioned on the label. "This may make the implicated batches unsafe for consumers who are allergic to or intolerant of eggs, and therefore, these consumers should not eat the implicated batches. The affected batches are being recalled." The affected products display the best-before dates of 28/08/26, 18/09/26, 22/09/26, and 24/09/26.
