Headline Of The Day: Tesco Withdraws Spotted Dick

Classic from the FSA, hot on the heels of the recent "melamine found in Chinese chocolate cock paint" scandal. I can't wait for next weeks already. We appear to have a government body with a sense of humour on our hands. Give it up for the FSA....

Tesco has withdrawn some spotted dick sponge puddings because jam sponge puddings, containing egg, have been packed in the spotted dick packaging and egg is not mentioned on the label. This product is therefore a possible risk for people who are allergic or intolerant to egg.

The Agency has issued an Allergy Alert advising anyone with an allergy or intolerance to egg not to eat this product.
