It comes just a few weeks after TK Maxx and Home Sense stores recalled the same Turkish Delight products for a similar reason.
A previous food recall issued by the retailers on December 24, 2024, read: “We are recalling Sultans Turkish Delights due to safety issue. They contain a small amount of undeclared milk which could cause an allergic reaction.”
Both recalls identified the same batches of Turkish Delights products, so shoppers are urged to check items thoroughly even if they were purchased before Christmas.
