Asda Cheese Sauce Mix containing allergens mustard and wheat withdrawn

Last updated: 1 December 2015
allergy alert
Asda has withdrawn certain pots of its Cheese Sauce Mix with a ‘best before’ end date of November 2016 because the pots contain a curry sauce mix. The incorrect label does not mention the presence of mustard and wheat. This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to mustard and/or wheat or an intolerance to gluten.
