Brownwood Farms Peach Salsa Recalled for Undeclared Yellow 5 Ingredient
Brownwood Farms is recalling Peach Salsa because it contains Yellow 5, a color additive not declared on the label.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically involves a reasonable probability that the use of the product will cause temporary or medically reversible health consequences. The hazard is an undeclared ingredient (Yellow 5), which is a labeling error rather than a high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
