Tesco is urgently recalling Vienetta Vanillas(Picture: Reuters)
Vienetta Vanillas are being from Tesco supermarkets because major allergens are written in the wrong language on the packaging.
Both Milk and Soya are not written in English on the packaging, prompting Unilever to recall the desserts ‘as a precaution’.
They are instead written in Spanish due to a labelling error.
The incorrect labels only applied to the 650ml packets of Vienetta Vanillas in Tesco stores.
In a notice about the recall, the Food Standards Agency said: ‘If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to milk or milk constituents and/or an allergy to soya, do not eat it.
‘Instead, contact the Unilever careline team for further guidance on 0800146252 or email ukicare@unilever.com.
‘Unilever is recalling the above product from customers and has contacted the relevant allergy support organisations, which will tell their members about the recall.
‘The company has also issued a point-of-sale notice to its customers.’

Last week Asda and Morrisons recalled a type of cheese from their stores after it was found to be contaminated with listeria bacteria.
The supermarkets put out the notice for their own-brand taleggio after tests found the potentially deadly bug.
Listeria typically causes symptoms similar to flu, but in more severe cases, the infection can lead to serious complications including meningitis.
Pregnant woman, babies less than one month old, and people older than 65 are among those most vulnerable to the bacteria.
