Plain-English summary
Wismettac Asian Foods, Inc. is recalling specific bars of Meiji Chocolate Takenoko no Sato, a chocolate wheat snack. The product is identified by the Japanese Bar code JAN(4902777111650) and, on bars with English labeling, the UPC 074410658809. The recall involves 94 cases, with each master case containing 10 individual items.
The recall is being conducted because some of these imported chocolate products do not have English labels for nutrition facts, ingredients, or allergens. The source text specifies that the allergens involved include milk, soy, egg, and tree nuts. The absence of these English labels prevents consumers from identifying potential allergens in the product.
The affected product was distributed in Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Texas, and Utah, as well as to one customer in Mexico. Consumers who have purchased this product should check their pantries for the specific bar code and UPC listed above. If the product is found, consumers should stop using it and follow the instructions provided by the recalling firm or the FDA regarding disposal or return.
