PepsiCo has recalled Walkers Variety Snacks Sharing Boxes containing Monster Munch Giants Roast Beef packs over undeclared wheat and gluten.

PepsiCo has updated a recall warning for Walkers Variety Snacks Sharing Boxes sold exclusively at Iceland. The 655g boxes contain Monster Munch Giants Roast Beef 85g packs that include wheat and gluten, which are not listed on the outer packaging despite being correctly shown on the individual bags inside.

The affected products have batch code 107543 and best-before dates of either November 21, 2026, or January 16, 2027. Consumers were initially warned over the weekend and have now been advised to check their products again. The boxes have since been removed from shelves.

The Food Standards Agency has urged anyone with a wheat or gluten allergy, intolerance, or coeliac disease who bought the product not to eat it. The warning does not extend to other Walkers or PepsiCo products, nor to Monster Munch bags sold separately.

Customers with affected boxes can obtain a full refund by contacting PepsiCo Consumer Care on 0800 274777 or visiting contact.pepsico.com/walkers.
