The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "NYSDAM sampled this product and sampling analysis revealed it contained undeclared Yellow #6."

Distribution was limited; the FDA record lists "NY." Single-area recalls still warrant a kitchen check for anyone who shops within that footprint. The recalling firm is based in Passaic, NJ. The recall covers 14 cases total of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Jul 27, 2016), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
