Reason for recall
The firm is recalling Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain Cereal because the product may be mislabeled and may contain an undeclared allergen - almond.
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.
