Food Alert: for Information
Ref: 32/2007
Tropicana UK Ltd has recalled a certain batch of Tropicana Smooth Style Orange Juice 1 litre due to an unpleasant smell and taste.
This action is a direct result of two calls from the public to the company. The complaints received had both been of a similar nature reporting an unusual odour on opening the product and an off taste if consumed.
Tropicana UK Ltd has withdrawn the affected batch from sale; the majority of affected cartons were still with retailers and had not been sold to the public.
Tropicana UK Ltd has issued point-of-sale notices, which advise consumers on actions they can take if they have purchased the affected product.
