Mars is recalling some bars of chocolate and bags of confectionery over the "potential presence of salmonella". The chocolate maker says the scare affects the sale of Galaxy Smooth Milk Chocolate bars, Galaxy Minstrels, and Galaxy Counters and Teasers bars in the UK and Ireland. Consumers are being warned not to eat the confectionery due to fears they may carry the potentially deadly bacteria.
A Mars Chocolate spokesman said: "Through our routine testing, we have detected the potential presence of salmonella from the ingredients used to make our chocolate. "As a precaution, we are voluntarily recalling certain Galaxy Smooth Milk Chocolate bars, Galaxy Minstrels, and Galaxy Counters and Teasers bars.
"We are working closely with the relevant food safety authorities and our customers to ensure that the affected products are no longer available for purchase. "If you have one of the products listed above, you should not eat it. "Please keep the product and contact our consumer care team to arrange return and reimbursement." PTI
