Liga product recalled over baby choking fears

Distributor Jacob Fruitfield Food group said it was recalling all Liga Original (which comes in a red box) from the Irish market because the biscuits have been found to take too long to soften in the mouth.

“This could possibly cause choking or discomfort in babies under nine months of age if they are fed the biscuits dry,” it said. “There is no safety concern if the biscuits are first mixed with liquid, such as milk or fruit juice.”
