Worthenshaws recalls Kirsty’s Classic Beef Lasagne because of inaccurate allergen information on the label
Worthenshaws Ltd is recalling Kirsty’s Classic Beef Lasagne because it contains a statement on the label that the product is free from all 14 allergens, which is not accurate as the product contains oats (that are gluten free). Oats is also not emphasised on the label. This means the product is a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to oats (that are gluten free).
