Reason for recall
During an FDA Investigation the firm was notified that their labels lack the declaration of soy and Yellow #5 which are known allergens.
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.
