Fisher's New England Clam Chowder Recalled for Undeclared Allergens
Fisher's Homestyle Salads LLC is recalling New England Clam Chowder because the packaging fails to list milk, corn, and specific shellfish allergens.
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 on common allergens (milk, shellfish), which meets the criteria for a High severity score under the rubric.
Plain-English summary
Fisher's Homestyle Salads LLC is recalling New England Clam Chowder packaged in 5 lb and 10 lb plastic containers. The recall was initiated due to labeling errors regarding allergens. Specifically, milk is not listed in the ingredient statement, though it appears in the allergen warning and as a subingredient of sodium caseinate. Additionally, corn is undeclared, and crab, lobster, and shrimp are not explicitly listed, despite the allergen statement mentioning "crustacean shellfish products."
The affected product was distributed to Esh Foods, L.L.C. in Gordonville, PA; Landis Foods in Lancaster, PA; and Soup R Salads in Lancaster, PA. Approximately 140 lbs were also sold directly to customers from the on-site retail counter at Fisher's Homestyle Salads, LLC. No sell-by or expiration date code was included on the package, but a 7-day sell-by date was estimated as July 4, 2013.
Consumers with this product should check their pantries and dispose of the chowder or return it to the place of purchase. Individuals with allergies to milk, corn, or shellfish should be particularly cautious, as the undeclared ingredients pose a risk of allergic reaction.
