Reason for recall
Due to the lack of the ingredient statement the firm failed to declare the following direct allergens: peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, and yellow #5. The products also lack the declaration that they are packaged in a facility that handles milk and eggs.
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.
