TRADING standards are warning about fake Oven Pride products being sold in small independent shops.
Halton Borough Council Trading Standards officers have put out the warning after the manufacturer recalled all unopened Oven Pride and BBQ Pride products bought in small stores over the past two months.
Any products bought from large national retailers, such as supermarket chains, are not affected.
There are significant differences in packaging and labelling on official and unofficial products.
Official products feature yellow warning labels on the top of the box and front of the bottle. There is also a black warning label on the side of the box.
Unofficial products do not have these.
Anyone with unofficial product should call the manufacturer’s customer helpline on 0845 6052981 to arrange a replacement free of charge, or e-mail complaints@mcbride.co.uk or claim online.
If you have bought the product from an outlet in Halton please let the Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline know on 03454 040506.
