Gather ’round, all you lovers of luscious treats! Tesco has sent out a warning that might just put a damper on your jelly cravings. It seems that a certain batch of jelly sweets has run into a bit of trouble and had to be whisked away from the shelves. Why, you ask? Well, it appears that there’s been a mix-up in the ingredients, and that’s no trifling matter, my friends.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is the ever-watchful guardian of our well-being, and they’ve raised the alarm on these sweets. Sometimes it’s sneaky allergens causing mischief, and other times it’s even bits of plastic finding their way into the delectable treats. But fear not, for the FSA is here to unravel all the juicy details of these conundrums.

So, here’s the lowdown. Tesco has had to recall a particular batch of jelly sweets due to the potential risks they pose for those with certain allergies. Imagine sinking your teeth into a tempting jelly snake, only to find your tongue swelling up like a balloon. Not exactly the thrill you were seeking, right?

The culprit in question? The Natural Confectionery Co. Jelly Snakes. It appears that within this scrumptious snare, there might just be a sneaky Liquorice Allsorts sweet lurking about, sneakily laced with wheat flour. Anyone allergic to wheat will know to steer clear of such treachery.

Now, if you happen to have gotten your hands on one of these suspect bags of jelly snakes, don’t fret. Tesco’s got your back. They’ve issued a decree: “Please don’t eat it!” Simply return it to the store and reclaim your coins. No need to embark on a grand quest through the recesses of your purse in search of long-lost receipts.

The batches in question that require your scrutiny are: The Natural Confectionery Co. Jelly Snakes 130g with a best before date of 16/12/24 and batch code of OSH0B35072, as well as with a best before date of 17/12/24 and batch code of OSH0B35112.

There you have it, my sweet-toothed comrades. Next time you venture into Tesco’s realm in search of delectable delights, be sure to cast a discerning eye upon those jelly snakes. And if you’re feeling fortunate, perhaps you’ll waltz away with £1000 worth of energy-efficient Hotpoint appliances to make amends for the loss of your sweet treasures.
