Aldi has been forced to recall one of its pasta products after the packaging failed to mention an ingredient which could pose a health risk to some customers.
The supermarket giant and the Food Standards Agency (FSA) issued an alert to customers on Sunday (February 18) warning them of the product which contains mustard not mentioned on the label.
This product recall is the second issued in a number of months with another still in place due to risk of broken glass.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
