Domino’s has issued an urgent ‘do not consume’ warning over allergy concerns with some of its dips.
Traces of peanut have been discovered two popular dips, forcing the chain to pull them from sale.
Batches of the Garlic & Herb and Honey & Mustard dips were withdrawn over the weekend as they could pose a risk for people with allergies.
Domino’s emailed customers, warning them that both the 100g ‘Big Dip’ pots and the 25g pots are said to be affected.
The fast food giant urged those with a peanut allergy to throw them away and avoid eating them.
‘We have become aware that some of our Garlic & Herb and Honey & Mustard dips may contain traces of peanut,’ Domino’s Pizza said.
‘This may impact both out 100g ‘Big Dip’ pots and the smaller 25g pots we provide with our pizzas.’
Customers shared screenshots of the email online, alerting others who may not be on Domino’s contact list.
Illustrator Mel Gibbons tweeted: ‘Domino’s UK please say you are going to shout about this on social media as well as burying this in people’s emails?
‘I was wondering why I had an itchy mouth and felt sick after dipping my pizza in one of these last week, and other people’s allergies are not as mild as mine.’
A spokesperson for Domino’s apologised for the error, saying: ‘Domino’s takes food safety very seriously.
‘We are working urgently with our supplier to understand how this happened and ensure it doesn’t happen again.
‘There will be disruption to the supply of dips in the coming days while we wait for new supplies to arrive and appreciate customers’ understanding during this time.’
