Fruit pies have been found to contain mould

NewsGuard 100/100 Score

The Food Standards Agency is today advising consumers that some pies in batches of three brands of fruit pies have been found to contain mould.

 
The Agency understands that this occurred because a preservative was ommitted during the production process.

The three affected brands, all made by Manor Bakeries, are: Mr Kipling Six Fruit Selection Dessert Pies, ASDA Six Assorted Fruit Pies and Tesco Summer Fruit Pies.

While eating the mouldy pies is unlikely to be a signficiant health risk, it could be unpleasant.

The products are believed to have been removed from the shelves, but people may still have them at home as the best before dates are up to 11 June.

Anyone who has a product from the affected batch should return it to their retailer and request a refund.
