Timeline

15 Oct 2014	Recall initiated by company
6 Nov 2014	Classified by FDA	+22 days
12 Nov 2014	Published in enforcement report	+6 days

Reason for recall

Voluntary recall of strawberry flavored gelatin mix and mango flavored gelatin mix which were found to contain undeclared colors, FD& C Red # 40, FD&C Yellow #5, and FD&C Yellow #6.

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.
