The recalls cover various items, from snacks to meat and condiments, because of undeclared allergens or possible contamination that could present serious health hazards. One surprising product is reported to contain "small pieces of metal", which poses a danger if consumed.

Lidl GB has recalled its XXL Sondey Stroopwaffel with Caramel Flavour Filling & Butter after discovering the product may contain small pieces of metal.
