Aldi is recalling two soups because they may accidentally contain peanuts - making them potentially fatal for people with allergies.

The discounter’s Soupreme Creamy Chicken Soup and Specially Selected Pea and Ham Hock Soup has been pulled off the shelves because of the error, and a recall notice has been issued by the Food Standards Agency.

The FSA has said: “These products may contain peanut making them a possible health risk for anyone with an allergy to peanuts.”

Aldi said: “As a precautionary measure, Aldi is recalling an isolated batch of this product due to the possible presence of undeclared peanut. Customers are asked to return this product to their nearest store, where a full refund will be given. We apologise that this product did not meet our normal high standards and thank you for your co-operation.”

The affected batch of chicken soup comes in a Tetrapak carton that weighs 600g, has the bar code 4061462599842 and the use-by date of October 1. That is the only use-by date affected.
