Daisho Crab Miso Soup Recalled for Missing Shrimp Allergen Warning

Daisho crab miso soup is being recalled because the product contains shrimp but the label warns only for crab, posing a risk to consumers with shrimp allergies. Products were distributed across multiple US states and Canada.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

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: This is an allergen mislabeling case (shrimp not declared on label despite being present in the product). FDA Class II. No reported illnesses documented. Per the severity rubric, allergen mislabeling on common allergens without reported illness scores 3 (High).

Plain-English summary

Daisho crab miso soup (750g, UPC 4904621043919) is being recalled due to an allergen labeling error. The product contains shrimp as an ingredient but the label warns consumers only about crab content, failing to disclose the presence of shrimp.

This labeling deficiency creates a serious health risk for individuals with shrimp allergies, who may consume the product believing it is safe based on the crab-only warning.

The recall affects approximately 2,987 units distributed by Daiso California Warehouse to retail locations in California, Texas, Nevada, New York, New Jersey, Washington, and British Columbia, Canada.

Consumers who have purchased this product and have a shrimp allergy should not consume it and should return it to the retailer for a refund or replacement.
