Chicken Salad Recalled for Undeclared Milk Allergen

Cromer Food Services recalls chicken salad for undeclared milk not listed on the label. The product, distributed in GA and SC, poses a risk to consumers with milk allergies.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I undeclared allergen recall. The severity rubric explicitly defines 'Allergen mislabeling on common allergens' as High (Score 3). Milk is a major allergen; however, no illnesses have been reported and the hazard is theoretical, supporting the High rather than Severe rating.
