Shoppers warned 'do not consume' this semi-skimmed milk sold at Tesco and Asda due to recall
The recall applies to the following products:

Graham's Family Dairy said: "At Grahams Family Dairy we believe that the quality of our products and the safety of our consumers is paramount.
"This is a precautionary measure we have taken as there is a small risk a trace level of antibiotics may be present in the milk which could cause a reaction to consumers with an allergy to antibiotics."
It added: "We apologise for this issue and would like to reassure our customers no other Grahams Family Dairies products or Use By Dates are affected."

What is a product recall?
The FSA explains what a product recall is: "If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product).

"In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued.
"This provides local authorities with details of specific action to be taken on behalf of consumers."
