The food producer is one that specialises in Halal meat products and has warned that nine items in their product range are affected and are being withdrawn from sale in certain supermarkets.
Tahira Foods withdrawn products
The following products are being recalled because there was a ‘breakdown in the temperature control supply chain’ making them unsafe. However, if they were purchased at Morrisons, Coop, Asda and/or Sainsbury’s, they are not affected by the recall and so it is only products from all other retailers that are affected, as per FSA:

Food Standards Agency
As usual The Food Standards Agency has advised people not to eat any of the products and instead return them to the store of purchase where a refund will be issued. It is worth noting again that you should not return the product to Morrisons, Coop, Asda and/or Sainsbury’s as these ones are not affected and they are not offering refunds.
If you've purchased a product that's been included in a recall notice, you have the right to a refund through the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Retailers are obliged to offer a full refund for affected products, even if the food has been stored in your kitchen for several months.
Customers will even be eligible for a refund if the product has already been consumed or thrown away, by simply showing proof of purchase, bank statement or online order confirmation.
