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

Reason for recall

Some chocolate products imported from Japan do not have the English label for Nutrition facts, ingredients or allergens, which include milk, soy, egg, tree nuts.

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.
