Why it was recalled
Triton Seafood Co recalled their Neptune brand frozen Pre-cooked Conch Fritters and Conch Fritter Batter because the allergen, "Wheat" was not identified on the product label.
Undeclared allergen: Wheat
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.

FDA's distribution note: Product was distributed throughout the state of Florida and Texas.
Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to wheat; 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.
