Ottogi America INC recalled Ottogi Ramen Sari (Extra Noodle) in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Jan 15, 2019.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Undeclared allergen; egg." 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 "U.S. distribution to the following: CA, WA, UT, IL, TX, NJ, GA, NV, CO, HI, OR, AZ Foreign distribution to the following: Canada." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Gardena, CA. The recall covers 1,594,338 units of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Mar 6, 2019), 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.
