McClures, INC. recalled McClure's Pies & Salads, Inc. French Apple Pie in a Class II action, the FDA tier for products that may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects on Nov 15, 2011.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Undeclared allergens.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "Product was distributed to retail outlets in DE, MD, NJ and PA within the US." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Gap, PA. The recall covers 75 pies of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Oct 3, 2012), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
