Costa Coffee has recalled some of its range of sandwiches and wraps after it emerged that they could contain small stones.
The chain warned customers that four of its products could be affected, and that they could pose a choking hazard if they were eaten.
The products are Costa’s chicken and bacon caesar wrap, southern fried chicken wrap, chicken salad sandwich and BLT sandwich, with the recall applying to those with use-by dates from 6 to 8 September.
The company, which is owned by Coca-Cola and has more than 2,800 coffee shops in the UK and Ireland, said in a statement it was taking the matter “extremely seriously” and apologised for any concern caused by the recall.
A Costa Coffee spokesperson said: “We have been notified by our supplier of a possible presence of small stones that could be a choking hazard if consumed.
“Customers who bought any of the products listed should not eat them and instead, please return to a store, with or without a receipt, for a full refund.”
The Food Standards Agency has issued an alert on the recall, and also advised customers not to eat the products.
Costa Coffee said only the listed products were affected.
