SWINDON Council is urging consumers to check their cupboards after officers found food on sale that is the subject of a food hazard warning.

All Pran Brand Pickles have been found to be contaminated with the illegal dye Sudan I.

Shops in Swindon where the product was found on sale voluntarily surrendered it to officers, but members of the public are being urged to check their cupboards for the following products:

Pran Brand Mango Pickle

Pran Brand Olive Pickle

Pran Brand Mixed Pickle

Pran Brand Satkara (Citrus Pickle)

Pran Brand Lemon Pickle

Pran Brand Garlic Pickle

The pickles can be dangerous, especially if consumed in large quantities.

They do not comply with food safety requirements and the dye is not a permitted colour under government regulations.

The manufacturer is doing a trade withdrawal but it is possible some of the products may still be on sale or in homes.
