Reason for recall
Packages of Semi-sweet chocolate mini chips may contain undeclared sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and dried fruit from an Enjoy life foods seed and fruit mix product that was inadvertently added to the Semi-sweet chocolate mini chips product.
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.
