Mann Packing Company, INC. recalled O Organics Vegetable Tray, 18 oz. (1 lb. 2 oz.) 510g plastic tray. 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 Aug 4, 2016.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Incorrect ingredient label was attached to 18 oz. O Organics vegetable Trays with Creamy Ranch Dressing Dip and therefore do not correctly identify the allergens egg, milk and soy." 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 "To DC's in AZ. OR, TX, CA. HI, AZ, WA, AK, NY." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Salinas, CA. The recall covers 844 cases; 4 x 18 oz. trays per case of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Sep 28, 2016), 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.
