Restrictions on taking food out of UK (currently)

Zziggi

After the blue tongue outbreak recently, i understand there is/was some restrictions on taking food out of the UK.

Does anyone know if the restriction is still in force?

Does anyone know exactly what is banned please?

(I was wanting to take sarnies, fruit etc with me and I was told that sarnies containing cheese or meat is banned currently but i can't find any info easily online)

Thanks

The restrictions are more likely to be the destination country not allowing it in - so if you eat it before you get there you'll be fine. Some would ban what you are taking even if there were no outbreak.
