Waitrose Chocolate Chip Brioche Rolls Recalled Over Plastic and Metal

Waitrose & Partners is recalling its eight-pack of Chocolate Chip Brioche Rolls in England, Scotland and Wales. Possible pieces of hard plastic and metal make the affected batch unsafe to eat.

What’s Affected

• Product: Waitrose & Partners 8 Chocolate Chip Brioche Rolls
• Pack size: 8 rolls
• Batch code: B26177
• Best before: 26 July 2026

What You Should Do

Do not eat rolls from the affected pack. Return them to your nearest Waitrose branch for a full refund. For further information, call Waitrose Customer Care on 0800 188 884, option 4.

Why “May Contain” Is Enough for a Recall

The FSA identifies possible pieces of hard plastic and metal in the affected rolls. Customers are asked to return the pack without needing to find a fragment themselves. The notice does not say how large the pieces might be, how they entered the product or how many packs contain them.

The practical check is the packaging: eight rolls, batch B26177 and the 26 July best-before date. Do not use the absence of an obvious foreign object as a reason to eat rolls from a matching pack.

Check Any Packs Kept for Later

If you put some of these rolls in the freezer, check the original label or a saved photograph as well as packs still in the cupboard. The batch information remains the identifier even after storage. Let anyone else in the household who might use the rolls know about the alert, and keep the code available if you need Waitrose Customer Care to help identify a pack.
