UMVA has learned that a shocking recall has erupted over a popular chocolate bar, sending waves of concern through shoppers nationwide.
The confection, known as the Millennium Peanuts Caramel Milk Chocolate bar, was pulled from shelves at major discount chains after investigators discovered that crucial allergen information was missing from its packaging.
According to information obtained by UMVA, the label failed to list milk, soya and peanuts in English, while also omitting potential traces of hazelnuts, almonds, cashew nuts and gluten‑containing cereals.
This omission creates a dangerous blind spot for anyone with allergies or intolerances, prompting health officials to issue an urgent warning about the severe risk of accidental exposure.
Consumers who bought the affected batches can claim a full refund, and retailers have been instructed to remove every remaining unit from their aisles immediately.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that the manufacturer, Loudwater Trade & Finance Ltd, has issued an apology, pledging to uphold the highest standards of product safety and quality moving forward.
The incident underscores the critical importance of clear allergen labeling, reminding shoppers to scrutinize every ingredient list, especially on beloved treats.
