PepsiCo has broadened an urgent product warning concerning selected MonsterCrunch snack packs after confirming that an allergen is missing from the outer box.
The affected item is the 85g Monster Munch Giants Roast Beef pack sold within a 655g Variety Snacks sharing box from Walkers, bearing batch code 107543.
An initial warning was issued over the weekend, and consumers have since been asked to review their purchases again after PepsiCo added another use-by date to the notice.
The relevant dates are November 21, 2026, and January 16, 2027, with the latter newly included.
Although wheat, which contains gluten, appears among the ingredients listed on each individual bag inside the multipack, that information is absent from the packaging of the box.
Consumers who depend on the outer allergen declaration could therefore be unaware of the product’s wheat content.
The sharing boxes were available exclusively through Iceland, but the retailer has withdrawn the affected stock from its shelves.
Anyone holding one should check the product name, multipack description, weight, batch number and best-before dates against the recall details.
The Food Standards Agency has advised people with a wheat allergy, gluten intolerance or coeliac disease not to consume the affected box.
The issue is limited to the specified multipack and does not represent a wider recall covering Walkers multipacks or Monster Munch products generally.
Other items from Walkers and PepsiCo are not affected by the labelling error.
This includes the individual snack bags when purchased on their own rather than as part of the sharing box.
A full refund is available for customers who bought the affected multipack.
PepsiCo has issued recall notices to retailers and also informed relevant allergy support organisations.
Refund requests can be made through the PepsiCo Consumer Care Line on 0800 274777 or by visiting contact.pepsico.com/walkers.
