Popular Tesco fruit snack pulled from shelves over contamination fears

Tesco has pulled a popular fruit snack from its shelves over fears it may contain Salmonella.

The supermarket chain has recalled its own-brand Grape and Berry Medley amid concerns it could be contaminated.

Batches that may be affected have use-by dates of February 16 and 17.

Salmonella symptoms can include fever, diarrhoea and abdominal cramps.

Anyone experiencing the symptoms is urged to stay away from work, school or nursery until they have stopped having symptoms for at least 48 hours to avoid passing it on to others. 

Anyone who has bought the product is asked not to eat it and instead return it to the store for a full refund. No other products are impacted.
