Recall: 1.77M Pounds Of Singles Kraft Velveeta Cheesy Skillets Affected
A Kentucky-based company is recalling about 1.77 million pounds of shelf-stable ground beef and pasta products due to undeclared allergens and misbranding.
Truitt Brothers, Inc. is calling for stores to remove the nine-ounce microwaveable container of Kraft Velveeta Cheesy Skillets Singles – Ultimate Cheeseburger Mac from their shelves. The case codes being recalled include: 00210000432900, 00210000432910, 00210000432925, 00210000464000 and 00210000465100 with a Sell By/Best By date of March 2, 2014 through Oct. 23, 2014.
No other Kraft or Velveeta products are affected by this recall.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said food items have dried soy sauce and hydrolyzed soy protein, which are not mentioned on some labels. The company found the misbranding during its routine quality check and decided to contact food inspectors with FSIS so a thorough search could be conducted.
The company said the mistake came from a label supplier who unintentionally mixed labels with wrong ingredient formulation. While the allergens in these products could be dangerous to some consumers’ health, there have been no adverse reactions reported so far.
Consumers with recalled products in their possession should return them for a full refund. Questions or concerns can be directed to Kraft Foods’ Consumer Relations Center by calling 1-800-396-5512.
