Timeline

18 Sep 2019	Recall initiated by company
22 Oct 2019	Classified by FDA	+34 days
30 Oct 2019	Published in enforcement report	+8 days

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

Reason for recall

Product label identifies bonito, but product dipping sauce actually contains skipjack tuna, yellowfin tuna, and bluefin tuna as well as does not state the general allergen name of fish.

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.
