Wicks recalled Code: in a Class II action, the FDA tier for products that may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects on Jun 7, 2017.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "The firm's breaded seafood products were breaded using an ingredient, which was recalled due to undeclared milk." Allergen mislabeling is the leading cause of U.S. food recalls, because a missing declaration can trigger a reaction in someone who reads the label and believes the product is safe.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "MN, NH, OH, PA." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Trainer, PA. The recall covers 240 units of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Jul 26, 2017), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
