Chocoholics, listen up! A batch of Galaxy Cookie Crumble bars has been recalled over concerns that one of the bars could contain a rogue piece of plastic.

If you have a stash of the chocolate bars lying around your home, then you might want to check the 'best before' date, because those that expire on 16 August 2015 and weigh 114g are to be recalled.

Mars Chocolate UK - who manufacture the chocolate bars - said it will recall packets of the chocolate featuring the batch codes PB21, PB22 and PB23 to ensure the piece of plastic is not eaten by mistake.
