The firm said it means the product is a "possible health risk for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to gluten" the food watchdog say.

The affected scotch eggs include all sell by dates up to and including Monday January 29th, 2018.

The supermarket giant has put up notices around stores so customers know to return Marks & Spencer 2 Gluten Free Scotch Eggs.

A 'recalled' product is when customers are asked to return the goods to be refunded.
