Jars of aubergine pickle have been recalled after products that may contain pieces of glass were stocked on the shelves of Sainsbury’s and Waitrose.

The manufacturers of Patak’s Aubergine Pickle, AB World Foods is recalling the products because it may contain pieces of glass.

They added that the affected product has only been sold in Waitrose and Sainsbury’s.

“Patak’s is taking the precautionary step of recalling a limited number of 312g jars of Aubergine Pickle sold in some Waitrose and Sainsbury’s stores in the UK,” the notice read.

“The decision has been taken out of an abundance of caution and is linked to the very low risk of a possible presence of glass.

“No other Patak’s products, batch codes or best before dates are affected. This recall only applies to products sold in Waitrose and Sainsbury’s.”
