Recalled Items

[Alex]

Sainsburys, Tesco and the Asda have recalled their own brand tinned beans,  beans & sausages and mixed bean salad from the shelves.   They may contain small rubber balls, which could present a choking hazard.

Does that show that the beans are the same in all those shops but Sainsburys charge more?

Same beans.. different label..
Saw a program way back.. They were talking to a guy who worked in a factory.. packaging foodstuff.. He said that they just changed the labels on many of the goods..

I'm trying to think why small rubber balls are made and how the hell they got into a food factory. It's not like some allergenic foodstuff gretting into the wrong product. Sounds like sabotage.

Supermarkets get their own brand stuff made in factories they don't own. Several may have theirs made in the same factory but it doesn't mean that they are identical. Of course they could be though.
