A KELLOGG'S product is being recalled from shops due to a "quality defect".
Boxes of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes Chocolate Flavour have been pulled from stores around the UK and Ireland - and customers who have it in cupboards are being asked to "dispose of it".
Following some consumer complaints, the company found that a small proportion of batches could contain "hard lumps" that do not break down when eaten with milk.
This means there is a risk they could potentially cause dental damage or be a choking hazard.
The warning applies to all 450g packs with date codes from December 6, 2024 to April 28, 2025.
It does not affect Kellogg’s Corn Flakes Original cereal or any other Kellogg’s product.
A spokesperson said: "Making good food which is safe and high quality is our number one priority at Kellanova.
"Clusters of cereal forming during production can be a normal occurrence and these usually break up when eaten or placed in milk.
"But, when we spotted that hard lumps of cereal were forming in a very small amount of our new Kellogg’s Corn Flakes Chocolate Flavour cereal, we took the decision to recall all product.
"It’s important to say that the risk of injury from these hard lumps of chocolate cereal is minimal but we’re not willing to compromise on quality or safety."
Kellogg's is asking customers to dispose of any affected products and contact the company for a refund.
"We have also let the regulator know about this issue and are working with them on next steps," the spokesperson added.
"We apologise for any inconvenience caused."

Mild choking
If the airway is only partly blocked, the person will usually be able to speak, cry, cough or breathe, and may be able to clear the blockage themselves.

In children:
Severe choking
In adults:
Where choking is severe, the person won't be able to speak, cry, cough or breathe.
Without help, they'll eventually become unconscious, so you should carry out back blows.
In children:
Back blows can be carried out on children under one year.
If this doesn't work, chest thrusts can be started on kids up to 12 months old, and abdominal thrusts on those over one year.
Call 999 if the blockage doesn't come out after trying back blows and either chest or abdominal thrusts.
Keep trying this cycle until help arrives.
Even if the object has come out, get medical help. Part of the object might have been left behind, or the patient might have been hurt by the procedure.
