Our severity reasoning: This is an allergen mislabeling recall involving a common food allergen (anchovy/fish).

Plain-English summary

Aroma Meats LLC is recalling Nethili Pickle, a fish pickle product imported from Jampani Foods of India and distributed in Oregon. The product is packaged in a clear plastic pouch and labeled with incomplete net weight information and no UPC barcode.
