Rubber found in baby food

-

COW & Gate is urgently recalling a batch of baby food sold in major supermarke­ts – as it may contain fragments of rubber.

The company said small pieces of a thin blue rubber glove had been found in some jars of its Cheesy Broccoli Bake.

A recall notice was issued by the Food Standards Agency (FSA), which said the product may be “unsafe to eat”.

Cow & Gate said the product “does not pose a health risk” but “does not meet our usual high quality standards”.

The FSA said in a statement: “If you have bought the above product, do not feed it to your baby. Instead, return it to the store where it was bought, with or without a receipt, for a full refund.”
