Tesco is not the only supermarket to issue an urgent recall over allergy fears.
Sainsburys have put out two recalls in recent days thanks to both peanut and shellfish recalls.
The Food Standards Agency website said: “Sainsbury’s is recalling various pesto products listed below because they may contain peanuts, which are not mentioned on the label.
“This means the products are a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to peanuts.”
Anyone with a peanut allergy or intolerance should check for the product in their homes and ensure they do not consume it.
Those who have bought the products are being urged not to eat them and instead return them to store for a full refund.
Sainsbury’s have issued point-of-sale notices to customers with more information on the recall. They have stated people can also contact the relevant allergy helpline to get advice if necessary.
The supermarket has also warned about an undeclared ingredient in their own brand Gyoza product. The food item contained prawns which are missing from the ingredient list.
This could cause serious health issues for anyone with a crustaceans allergy or intolerance.
