The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Undeclared egg. Egg containing-macaroni was inadvertently mixed with macaroni that did not contain egg." 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 "The product was distributed to one consignee in Texas. There was no foreign, government, nor military distribution." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Omaha, NE. The recall covers Lot 063015V - 540/4/5-lb. bag cases; lot 070115V - 330/4/5-lb. bag cases of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Oct 7, 2015), 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.
