so far Tesco have retracted their 'may also contain nuts' from a packet of ham, a drink of apple and black current juice, and baked beans. They are reviewing other canned products with the view to change labelling after assessment.

In the last 2 weeks petition has been in national papers, and yesterday on 2 day time chat type shows, and this morning on bbc breakfast tv and radio.
