Plain-English summary

Mexicantown Wholesale has voluntarily recalled a total of 11 products, including Concha Amarilla, due to the presence of undeclared FD&C Yellow #6. The recalled items were distributed in Michigan only.

The recall was initiated because the products contained a food additive that was not declared on the label. This mislabeling poses a risk to consumers with allergies or sensitivities to the dye.
