Chocolate Takenoko No Sato Meiji recall

Recalled by Wismettac Asian Foods, INC · Santa Fe Springs, CA, United States

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

Why it was recalled

Some chocolate products imported from Japan do not have the English label for Nutrition facts, ingredients or allergens, which include milk, soy, egg, tree nuts.

Undeclared allergens: Milk Egg Tree nuts Soy

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.
