DUNNES STORES AND Spar have announced a recall of their own brand pestos.
The foods are being recalled due to the possible presence of Salmonella.
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) said it was a “precautionary measure”.
Consumers who have bought the implicated batches are being told to dispose of the product or return it to the place of purchase.
The Dunnes Stores products include a 130g tomato pesto with an expiry date of 30 September and a 130g basil pesto with an expiry of 25 September.
The Spar products include a 125g basil pesto and red pesto, both with expiry dates of 25 September.
Greenyard Frozen is also recalling various frozen vegetable products because they may contain Listeria monocytogenes.
Listeriosis is a serious disease which can be life threatening, particularly for pregnant women, the elderly and people with a weakened immune system.
