Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle Mix recall

Recalled by Bob's Red Mill Natural Foods, Inc. · Milwaukie, OR, United States

Class III — Low risk. Unlikely to cause harm, but violates FDA regulations.

Why it was recalled

Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle Mix is recalled due to undeclared milk in the ingredients statement. The ingredients statement of Buckwheat Pancake and Waffle Whole Grain Mix and the nutritional label was mistakenly applied to packages of Buttermilk Pancake and Waffle Mix.

Undeclared allergen: Milk

For someone with a food allergy the label is the only protection. An undeclared allergen can trigger a severe reaction even in a trace amount, which is why most of these recalls are Class I. All undeclared allergens recalls.

Low risk, but check. Class III means the product is unlikely to make anyone ill but breaks an FDA rule, often a labeling one. If your package matches, the store will normally refund it. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to milk; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern. 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.
