Got Food Allergies? This Recall List Is for You

Undeclared allergens are the theme for today's recall list.

People with wheat allergies who like the convenience of frozen foods should be on the alert this week. Van’s International Foods is recalling 118 cases of its frozen Van's Wheat Free Homestyle Pancakes, because they may contain wheat, in addition to gluten, milk, and eggs, none of which are listed among the ingredients. The frozen pancakes were distributed nationwide to Whole Foods, Wegmans, Giant Carlisle, Sprouts, and Martins, although other stores may carry the product, as well. More information
Jack's Pizza
Jack’s Original Pepperoni and Sausage Pizza is on the recall list this week – 8,000 pounds of it – because it may contain soy protein concentrate, which isn’t included among the listed ingredients. The particular batch in question is marked “Tombstone Original 12 Pepperoni Pizza” on the lower right of the back of the package; Jack’s Original Pepperoni and Sausage pizzas without the Tombstone label are not included in the recall. The pizzas were distributed to Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Washington, and Wisconsin.
