Premio Strawberry Pralinati, Strawberry with Cocoa, 3.53oz, 10 units per case, packed in Paper Cartons

Gourmet International INC. recalled Premio Strawberry Pralinati, Strawberry with Cocoa, 3.53oz, 10 units per case, packed in Paper Cartons in a Class III action, the FDA tier used when a product is unlikely to cause adverse health effects, typically for labeling or minor regulatory issues on Nov 2, 2017.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Gourmet International Inc. is initiating a voluntary recall of cookie products due to undeclared colors." 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 "Domestic: Domestic only, no VA/DOD KY, TX, WI, Washington DC, PA, VA, MO, FL, OH, SC, AL, CA, IN,." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Grand Rapids, MI. The recall covers 24,179 cases 241,790 units of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Dec 20, 2017), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
