Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Discovered through the complaint process that the ingredient list for carrot cake slices did not include walnuts in the ingredient or allergen statement. Nuts are visible through packaging.

Food allergen labelling is required by US law for the nine major allergens. A product recalled for an undeclared allergen is only a risk to people with that allergy; everyone else can consume it safely.
