Timeline

28 Aug 2012	Recall initiated by company
28 Sep 2012	Classified by FDA	+31 days
10 Oct 2012	Published in enforcement report	+12 days

Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Product labeling fails to declare allergens (eggs, milk, soybean oil) contained in mayonnaise and sour cream used as sub-ingredients

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.
