Multiple pies sold at Tesco, Sainsbury's and Asda recalled over health concern
Find below the full list of 10 flavours affected by the urgent recall. Brits are being warned not to consume multiple flavours of pies from one brand. It's been warned that they are "not safe to consume" due to incorrect date labelling. Pieminister Kitchens has issued a major recall for 10 of its fresh pies that all weigh 270g due to containing an incorrect use-by date of June 24, 2026. The correct date should be June 24, 2025. Due to the packaging containing the wrong date, a food alert posted to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has confirmed that the products are "not safe to eat beyond their intended use-by date of 24 June this year." The pies can be found in stock at multiple UK supermarkets including Tesco, Asda, Waitrose, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Ocado. The full list of the affected 10 pie flavours are as follows: Pieminister Moo - British Beef Steak and Craft Ale Pie Pieminister Moo & Blue - British Beef Steak and Stilton Pie Pieminister Kate & Sidney - British Beef Steak, Kidney and Craft Ale Pie Pieminister Deer & Beer - Venison, Milk Stout, Mushroom and Thyme Pie Pieminister Free Ranger - Free Range British Chicken and Ham Pie with Leek Pieminister Fungi Chicken - Free Range British Chicken, Portobello and Chestnut Mushroom Pieminister Wild Shroom - Portobello and Chestnut Mushroom Pie with Asparagus and White Wine Pieminister Mooless Moo - Jackfruit 'Steak', Craft Ale and Black Pepper Pie Pieminister - Goat's Cheese and Sweet Potato Filo Pie with Red Onion and Spinach Pieminister - Spinach and Feta Filo Pie with Kale, Lemon and Dill The pie making firm has since advised shoppers in its recall notice that, while the above products are not safe to consume past their use-by date, they are "completely safe to eat" up until then (June 24, 2025.) However, customers who would prefer to return them will be offered a refund when they contact the Pieminister Kitchens Customer Service on hello@ or by phone on 0117 942 3300. The firm is said to have since issued point of sale noticed to all retailers that sell the savoury pies. These explain to customers why they are being recalled and what to do if they have bought them in the past. The firm said in its recall notice to customers: "Pieminister Kitchens apologise for any inconvenience this technical issue may cause our customers and assure them that we take this matter very seriously.

This isn't the only recall the FSA has had to issue recently, as we reported last week that Lidl shoppers were being warned not to consume a popular breakfast item that may contain "foreign bodies." The supermarket's Harvest Basket Hash Browns were being recalled after it was discovered they "may contain pieces of metal", with all 750g pack sizes with the batch code 5144L and the best before date of May 24, 2027 affected. Sold in specialised American candy shops, these sweets were found to contain two mineral oils not allowed on the UK market, with one of them being linked to an increase in cancer.

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A POPULAR food brand has issued an urgent recall of its pies over fears they may be out of date – check if yours is affected. Pieminister Kitchens has confirmed that several of its products were given the wrong use-by date. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The pies were incorrectly labelled with a use-by date of June 24, 2026 Credit: Pieminister Kitchens The pies were mistakenly labelled with a use-by date of June 24, 2026, instead of June 24, 2025 – a full year too late. The popular food brand warned that eating the pies past the intended expiry date would be unsafe. Pieminister products that were mislabeled Here are the Pieminister products that were mislabeled, with the correct date for safe consumption being June 24, 2025: Pieminister Moo - British Beef Steak and Craft Ale Pie Pieminister Moo & Blue - British Beef Steak and Stilton Pie Pieminister Kate & Sidney - British Beef Steak, Kidney and Craft Ale Pie Pieminister Deer & Beer - Venison, Milk Stout, Mushroom and Thyme Pie Pieminister Free Ranger - Free Range British Chicken and Ham Pie with Leek Pieminister Fungi Chicken - Free Range British Chicken, Portobello and Chestnut Mushroom Pieminister Wild Shroom - Portobello and Chestnut Mushroom Pie with Asparagus and White Wine Pieminister Mooless Moo - Jackfruit 'Steak', Craft Ale and Black Pepper Pie Pieminister - Goat's Cheese and Sweet Potato Filo Pie with Red Onion and Spinach Pieminister - Spinach and Feta Filo Pie with Kale, Lemon and Dill Shoppers who purchased any of these items can get a full refund by returning them to the store where they were bought, according to the beloved food brand. Pieminister fans with questions can contact the company by email at hello@ or call 0117 942 3300. It comes after Lidl urgently recalled a popular breakfast item over fears it contains pieces of metal. The supermarket giant has pulled Harvest Basket Hash Browns from its shelves and urged customers to return the product immediately. Shoppers were advised to avoid the 750g frozen goods following concerns they are unsafe to eat and pose a serious choking hazard. Warning notices will be issued in stores across the country to return the item with a batch number 5144L and best before date 24 May 2027. The Food Standards Agency confirmed yesterday that any customer returning the breakfast favourite will be issued with a full refund. Anyone who has purchased the product has been advised to call 0203 966 5566 or email Staying Safe with Product Recalls in the UK In a statement, the budget retailer said: "Lidl GB is recalling the product due to the potential presence of foreign bodies (metal) which may present a choking hazard. "If you have bought the above product we advise you not to eat it. "Customers are asked to return this product to the nearest store where a full refund will be issued." This follows an urgent warning which was issued to UK shops selling a popular sweet product. And a popular children's toy has been urgently recalled after it was found to have a "serious risk of suffocating".

Is Skye really a dog-friendly destination? We went to find out
Yet although our beaches and rolling hills are a pooch's paradise, it isn't always easy to find dog-friendly hotels or restaurants beyond the city. Accommodation is often limited to pods or huts, putting the more highbrow hotels out of bounds for four-legged friends, while options for food and drink can be sorely lacking. So it was with some trepidation that I booked a trip to Skye with my springer/poodle Paddy. After blanching at some of the prices for dog-friendly Airbnbs, it was a huge relief to discover that the Skeabost House Hotel (one of Skye's oldest and finest hotels) had an array of dog-friendly rooms. It meant I could be looked after by the excellent hospitality of a traditional hotel, while Paddy was spoiled with a large garden area to run around in – plus his own dog bed to curl up in afterwards. (Image: Skeabost House Hotel) The Skeabost, which began life as a hunting lodge in 1871, boasts an idyllic position on the edge of the River Snizort, the best salmon and trout fishing river on the island. But does that make it inaccessible? Far from it. I hopped on the local bus from right outside the hotel entrance –with Paddy in tow– and within 15 minutes arrived in the centre of Portree, the beating heart of Skye's culture and nightlife. It was a pleasant surprise to discover that almost every pub and bar was dog-friendly, including the rather stylish Caberfeidh Bar and Restaurant, a moodily lit cocktail bar that wouldn't look out of place in the trendier haunts of Finnieston. There's more traditional Highland hospitality too, if that's what you are after, including in the Antlers Bar and Grill where we had delightful fish and chips, and in the Isles Inn, where we struck up conversation with visiting American tourists. Although, in truth, they were far more interested in saying hello to Paddy than to my partner and I. The barmaid advised us that we could catch live traditional music at 1820 An Talla Mòr, a converted church that now operates as a bar and music venue – perhaps a microcosm of how Skye looks to adapt its once devoutly religious culture for a new generation. It was a complete joy to hear authentic music as part of the island's Trad Fest in such a setting, especially when the band called everyone up for a rendition of Strip the Willow (which even Paddy got whirled around for). Nursing slightly sore heads the next morning, we made the short drive into Portree on the hunt for a pick-me up, promptly delivered via coffees and scones at Café Arriba. It's a quirky little venue – designed to look Latin American but with sweeping views over Portree harbour. A special mention must be given to their delightful staff, who made a huge fuss of Paddy and slipped him a dog biscuit (or seven). We then braved the rain and howling winds with a drive to the Quiraing. This obscure formation of rocks was created via a landslide occurring over millions of years, a statistic wasted on Paddy, who was only interested in sniffing the grass. (Image: Alex Burns) There's a straightforward path from the car park that leads to a cracking viewpoint – like many places on Skye, the Quiraing looks just as majestic in gloomy, cloudy conditions as it does on a bright sunny day. After a certain point though, the path narrowed considerably, and with Paddy determined to pull us along the slippy cliff edge we decided to return to the hotel. A three-course meal at the Skeabost was the ideal way to warm up after our excursions, with the Maître d', John, charming us with his customer service and wine selections while politely correcting our awful pronunciation of some of the place names on Skye. Dogs weren't allowed in the restaurant, but it was a relief to have a night off from dog duties while knowing Paddy was happily snoring in the room. After breakfast the next day we departed – on John's recommendation – to Ben Tianavaig for a hill walk. Although Skye boasts spectacular scenery on its Cuillin ridges, the rocky terrain and steep drops are unforgiving and have been the scene of several fatal accidents. Ben Tianavaig, in comparison, gives a gentle, grassy incline, much more suitable for dogs, and takes less than three hours to get up and down. (Image: Alex Burns) Yet the views are still spectacular, taking in great swathes of the sea, surrounding hills and Isle of Raasay beyond. Feeling smug about our excursions, we decided we more than deserved a sweet treat from the Coffee Bothy on the road back towards the mainland. I crossed back over the Skye bridge feeling mixed emotions. Relief, that the trip had been such a success, and that Paddy had been welcomed with open arms, but also genuinely sadness to be leaving after 48 short hours. Knowing now how dog-friendly Skye really is, I am already planning a trip back in the summer. Those lockdown dreams might come true after all…
