Timeline

| 21 Oct 2015 | Classified by FDA | +83 days |

Reason for recall
Protein powders and nutritional supplement products made of whey concentrate, whey isolate, casein, and colostrum are not labeled as containing milk
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.
