Willamette Valley Pie Company Cherry Pie recall
Recalled by Willamette Valley Pie Company, LLC. · Silverton, OR, United States
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
Cherry Pie packages were recalled due to being misbranded. The actual product inside clamshell package is Raspberry Rhubarb Pie, but it was mislabeled as Cherry Pie. Raspberry Rhubarb Pie does NOT contain artificial almond extract.
A label that does not match the product can hide an ingredient someone must avoid, or show a wrong use-by date. All labeling errors recalls.
