Derby City Vending INC recalled Derby City Vending "Finish Line" Hand Made Chicken Salad 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 Jun 12, 2012.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "During an FDA inspection of the firm on 6/12/2012, the firm was notified that they were missing the following allergen declarations from their labels: soy, milk, eggs and 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 "Product was shipped to KY and IN." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Louisville, KY. The recall covers 3,560 Sandwiches 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. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
