Urgent Recall: Tony's Chocolonely Easter Eggs May Contain Metal
Just days before Easter, popular chocolate brand Tony's Chocolonely has issued a second urgent recall, this time affecting two of its large hollow Easter eggs. Following an earlier recall of chocolate bars due to potential stone contamination, the company is now warning consumers about possible metal fragments in its 242g Hollow Milk Chocolate Egg and Hollow Milk Caramel Sea Salt Egg (best before June 2025).
What Eggs Are Affected?
The recall specifically targets certain batch codes of the 242g Hollow Milk Chocolate Egg and the 242g Hollow Milk Caramel Sea Salt Egg, both with a best-before date of June 2025. A full list of affected batch codes is available on the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Tony's Chocolonely websites. This is crucial information for consumers to check before consuming any of these products.
What Should You Do?
If you have purchased either of these Easter eggs with the affected batch codes, do not eat them. Immediately return the product to the store where you bought it for a full refund. Tony's Chocolonely has emphasized that the rest of its Easter range, including smaller eggs, is unaffected. The company is working with retailers to swiftly remove the recalled products from shelves. This proactive approach reflects Tony’s Chocolonely's commitment to consumer safety and transparency.
Previous Recalls and Other Brands
This recall follows a previous one earlier this week, involving Tony's Chocolonely's 180g Dark Almond Sea Salt and Everything bars, which may contain small stones. Furthermore, Sainsbury's also issued a recall of its Taste the Difference Belgian Milk Chocolate Honeycomb Pretzel due to potential metal fragments. This highlights the importance of checking product information carefully before consumption.
Why This Matters
With Easter fast approaching, this recall serves as a stark reminder to always check product information and be aware of potential food safety issues. By swiftly responding to these concerns and proactively recalling potentially hazardous products, companies like Tony's Chocolonely demonstrate a commitment to protecting their customers.
