A UK supermarket chain is recalling four types of children’s snack as the website published on the packaging has been compromised. Usually when a supermarket recalls a food item, its due to an issue with the food contents. In this instance, the recall is due to the website listed on the packaging. The snacks being recalled are for four type of PAW Patrol-themed snacks. The website printed on the snack’s packaging was compromised and was serving explicit content. The website was found to be serving adult content in Chinese but only on mobile devices. When accessed from a computer, the website shows a “temporarily unavailable” notice sighting violations of regulations of the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Customers who have purchased the snacks are advised to refrain from viewing the website and return the product to the nearest store for a full refund.
