Tesco shoppers warned over wrong dates on pate packs
Tesco has recalled several of its own-brand pate products because of incorrect use-by dates that could pose a safety risk.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) said the products may be unsafe to eat due to a microbiological risk linked to the wrong date being printed on the packs.
The affected products are:
• Tesco Coarse Farmhouse Pate, 170g, use by 05 January 2026
• Tesco Coarse Ardennes Pate, 170g, use by 05 January 2026
• Tesco Smooth Chicken Liver Pate, 170g, use by 05 January 2026
A recall notice has been issued to all Tesco stores. Point-of-sale signs will explain the reason for the recall and advise customers what to do.
The FSA stated: “The products listed above have been labelled with an incorrect ‘use-by’ date printed on the pack. The products may pose a microbiological risk, making them unsafe to eat.”
Tesco said customers should not consume the products. Those who have bought any of the affected pate can return them to the store for a full refund, without needing a receipt.
