Reason for recall
The firm voluntarily recalled a total of 11 products: this product was recalled due to undeclared 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.
