Baxters Cullen Skink Soup Recalled Over Spoilage and Bursting Cans

Baxters has recalled Chef Selections Cullen Skink soup in England and Wales after a manufacturing fault. The 6 November FSA notice says the fault could spoil the soup and cause cans to swell or rupture.

What’s Affected

• Product: Baxters Chef Selections Cullen Skink soup
• Pack size: 400g can
• Batch code: L07XC
• Best before: April 2029
• Area covered: England and Wales

What You Should Do

Do not eat the soup or open the can. The FSA advises carefully putting the full, unopened can in a bag and disposing of it in an external bin.

Contact Baxters Customer Care on 0800 389 8389 to arrange a replacement or ask for further information. The instructions for this recall are to dispose of the unopened can and contact Baxters for a replacement.

Check the Code Before Opening

The April 2029 date means a matching tin could remain in a cupboard for years. Check the batch code as well as the product name before using it. The notice describes possible unpleasant odour and flavour, but its disposal instructions mean you should not open a recalled can to investigate.

If someone else stocks or uses the cupboard, pass on the batch details so they can check their tins too.

Read the official FSA notice for the recall instructions and any updates.
