The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class III
Class III is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
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: Product contains undeclared soy lecithin (a common allergen) not listed on the label. Meets the rubric criterion for allergen mislabeling on common allergens (Score 3). No illnesses reported, but the presence of an actual undeclared allergen—not merely theoretical risk—warrants this classification.
Plain-English summary
Alida's Bakery LLC has recalled Alida's Wheat Saoka Pita Bread, sold in 5-piece packages of 16.25 oz each (UPC 8 60004 65931 0). The recall was issued due to the presence of undeclared soy lecithin in the product.
During manufacturing, the canola oil used to grease the pans was found to contain soy lecithin. While soy is not listed on the product label, soy is a common allergen and this poses a risk to consumers with soy allergies. The label states the product contains Wheat and Gluten, but omits soy.
The affected product was distributed in Washington state only, with an expiration date of August 20, 2022. The product is made from wheat flour, white flour, water, wheat gluten, yeast, sorbitan monostearate, ascorbic acid, salt, and canola oil.
