Chef Pineiro's Ajo con Albahaca recall

Recalled by AC Culinary Group LLC. · Catano, PR, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

The firm received a customer complaint describing a metal filament in a bottle of one lot of Sofrito Cilantro 32 oz. Further investigation determined that the same type of metal filament was found in raw material (dehydrated minced onion) used in the manufacture of Sofrito Cilantro 32 oz and other products.

Hard or sharp fragments can cut the mouth or throat, break teeth or cause choking. They usually come from equipment wear or packaging on the production line. All foreign material recalls.

FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
