Cheese Pre-mix JG 9-1, in 50 lbs bags intended to be used in the manufacture of cheese dip

Custom Ingredients LLC recalled Cheese Pre-mix JG 9-1, in 50 lbs bags intended to be used in the manufacture of cheese dip in a Class II action, the FDA tier for products that may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects on Feb 17, 2014.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Undeclared wheat" 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 "TX, NY." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in New Braunfels, TX. The recall covers 5,200 lbs. (104-50 lbs. bags) of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Sep 3, 2014), 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.
