Consumers urged to return mayonnaise, pies after national recalls
Nanna's apple pies and Aldi's Real mayonnaise are both being recalled.
Urgent national recalls have been issued for two supermarket food products – Aldi’s Colway Real Mayonnaise and Nanna’s family apple pies – amid fears of potential danger to anyone who eats them.
The Aldi mayonnaise has been recalled because of faulty packaging and the potential for glass breakage.
The 466-gram jars have been sold in Aldi stores across Australia.
The supermarket chain says consumers should return the jars for a full refund.

The NSW Food Authority said in a statement that Nanna’s 600-gram family apple pies were being recalled because some of them might contain glass.
It said glass could have got into the pies because of “an equipment failure with a supplier”. Nanna’s had “initiated a recall of the affected batches as a precautionary measure”.
The pies have been sold in Coles, Woolworths, IGA, Foodlands and other independent supermarkets across Australia.
Those affected are 600-gram apple pies with a best-before date of October 21, 2020, and October 22, 2020.
