Tortilleria Provincia Refrigerate After Purchase White Corn Tortillas recall

Recalled by Tortilleria Provincia · Bowling Green, KY, United States

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

Why it was recalled

The firm used the same label clear plastic bags with Nutrition Facts and Ingredients listed for all three type corn tortillas (Yellow, White, and Blue); the color Yellow # 2 was written in lieu of Yellow # 6 for the Blue corn tortilla; additional color ingredients (FD&C BLUE No. 1, FD&C YELLOW No. 2, FD&C RED N. 40, SODIUM BENZOATE) are included for the White and Yellow corn tortillas.

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.
