Plain-English summary
The Clorox Company is voluntarily recalling Hidden Valley Original Ranch dressing, 16 fl oz. plastic bottles, due to incorrect ingredient labels. The recall affects 318 cases (2,910 bottles) distributed nationwide.
The recall is necessary because some bottles inadvertently lack the declaration of soy lecithin as an ingredient. The product contains soy, which is a major food allergen, and the missing label prevents consumers with soy allergies from identifying the product as unsafe for them.
Consumers with this specific product, identified by Lot Number 200551 (22:00 to 22:59) and code G115315 B 27AUG16 22, should stop using it and return it to the place of purchase for a refund or contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
