Amid a worsening E.coli outbreak, a massive onslaught of sandwiches, wraps and salads is being pulled.
So far, 211 cases have been confirmed in the latest outbreak, with at least 67 people requiring hospital treatment.
Some of the UK’s biggest retailers, including Aldi, Asda, Sainsbury’s and Tesco, have been forced to pull out.
