Aldi product recall: Inspired Cuisine Baby Potatoes recalled over allergy fears

Aldi has issued a recall of their Inspired Cuisine baby potatoes with herbs and butter due to certain batches potentially causing allergic reactions. This recall is due to a packaging error where milk was not listed as an ingredient, meaning those with allergies to dairy or intolerance to milk or lactose could have a reaction to the dish.
