Ireland's food-safety watchdog has recalled three Marks & Spencer Pink Lady apple products over possible Salmonella contamination, telling consumers not to eat them and retailers to remove them from sale.
The Food Safety Authority of Ireland has issued a recall for three Marks & Spencer Pink Lady apple products after a warning over possible Salmonella contamination.
Consumers are being told not to eat the affected products, which were sold in Ireland, and retailers have been instructed to remove the batches from sale and display recall notices at point of sale.
Affected products
The recall covers three M&S Pink Lady items with a use-by date of June 24, 2026:
- M&S Food Pink Lady Apple Slices 225g
- M&S Food Pink Lady Apple 90g
- M&S Café Pink Lady Apple 90g
The warning was published on June 25, 2026, making it a fresh consumer-safety alert for shoppers in Ireland.
Why the recall was issued
Salmonella is a foodborne bacterium that can cause gastrointestinal illness, including diarrhea, fever, headache and abdominal cramps. Food recalls in Ireland are typically issued as precautionary public-health measures when contamination is suspected or confirmed.
The FSAI notice was described as a clear do not eat warning, with the products removed from sale while the alert is in force.
What happens next
At this stage, the available reporting does not confirm any illness reports linked to the apples. It also is not clear whether Marks & Spencer has issued a separate customer notice or refund guidance.
Further updates to watch for include a formal standalone recall page from the FSAI with batch identifiers or distributor details, any company statement from Marks & Spencer, and any expansion of the recall to additional fruit products.
