Reason for recall
Allergen (sesame seeds) declared in the ingredient statement but missing from the "Contains" statement
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.
