Mars has recalled a number of Revels chocolate products over fears they may contain small pieces of rubber.
The confectionery company has recalled three different Revels products due to the issue, which makes them unsafe to eat.
The affected products include the Revels More to Share 205g bags, the Revels 112g pouch and the Revels 71g Treat Bag.

What is a product recall?
If there is a problem with a food product that means it should not be sold, then it might be 'withdrawn' (taken off the shelves) or 'recalled' (when customers are asked to return the product).
The FSA issues Product Withdrawal Information Notices and Product Recall Information Notices to let consumers and local authorities know about problems associated with food.
In some cases, a 'Food Alert for Action' is issued.
This provides local authorities with details of specific actions to be taken on behalf of consumers.
