- Allergens not declared on the label: Egg and milk

Why the Dunnes Stores product was recalled
The recall is linked to incorrect packaging and labelling. The product inside the affected packs contains egg and milk, but those allergens are not mentioned on the label for the Southern Fried Chicken Sliders.
This is an undeclared allergen recall rather than a warning affecting every pack of the product. The FSAI notice identifies the implicated batch by its 08/11/2026 use-by date. Consumers should check the product details carefully rather than assuming that every pack is affected.
What consumers should do
Anyone with an egg or milk allergy, or an intolerance to either allergen, should not eat the affected batch. Check the product name, 272g pack size and use-by date before consuming it.
- Do not eat the affected product if you are allergic or intolerant to egg or milk.
- Keep the packaging available so the product can be identified accurately.
- Follow the recall and return instructions provided by Dunnes Stores or the relevant official notice.
- If you have concerns after consuming the product, seek appropriate medical advice.
People who do not have an allergy or intolerance to the named allergens are not the group identified as being at risk in this FSAI food allergen alert. However, consumers should still use the official product identifiers when deciding whether their pack is involved.
How to check whether your pack is affected

The official notice does not identify additional pack sizes, use-by dates or batch details. Do not assume that other dates or products are included unless a later update confirms this.
What the FSAI alert means
