Anyone who bought Bisto gravy recently needs to hear this news

A batch of gravy granules have been recalled as there is concern that some may contain metal.

The Bisto for Chicken Granules in the 170g containers and the 170g containers of Reduced Salt Bisto for Chicken Granules have both been recalled as a result.

The Food Safety Authority issued the product recall for the batch with a best before date of January 2017.

Due to a production fault it was found that some of the packets may contain small pieces of metal.

The company who manufacture the products, Premier Foods has said that retail customers have been contacted and point of sale notices will be displayed in stores.

Spokesman Steve Marinker said about the recall:

“After some maintenance there was a fault which occurred in a filler bowl on the production line and there was some rubbing against the metal bolts, and that is what created this issue.”

He added: ” The company apologies to Bisto consumers for any inconvenience caused.”
