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: The recall involves allergen mislabeling (undeclared soy) on a common allergen, which corresponds to a severity score of 3 (High) per the rubric, as no illnesses or injuries have been reported.

Plain-English summary

San Francisco Street Bakery Inc. is recalling 62 loaves of Pain Au Levain Bread, 16 oz (454 g), produced on July 6-7, 2020. The product was distributed in Washington state. The recall was initiated because the firm used a pan release spray containing soy lecithin on equipment and finished products, but the product labels do not declare soy lecithin as an ingredient.

The product is individually packaged in flex poly bags with UPC 0 08613 10013 1. No code or expiration date is noted on the packages, but firm color codes tie closures representing the days of the week. The agency has classified this as a Class II recall.

Consumers with this product should stop using it and return it to the place of purchase or contact the firm for instructions. Individuals with a soy allergy should be particularly cautious, as the presence of undeclared soy lecithin poses a risk of allergic reaction.
