What this means for you

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (milk), which corresponds to a severity score of 3 (High) according to the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Market of Choice Inc is recalling 138 units of pre-packaged Mediterranean Salad Vegan (UPC 0 211004 706991). The recall was initiated because the product's ingredients statement declares milk, but the 'Contains' statement fails to list it.

The affected units were distributed in Oregon and have sell-by dates ranging from July 29, 2018, to August 7, 2018. This labeling discrepancy poses a risk to consumers with milk allergies or sensitivities who rely on the 'Contains' statement to identify allergens.

Consumers who purchased this product should check their sell-by dates and UPC codes. If the product matches the description, consumers should not consume it and should return it to the place of purchase or contact the manufacturer for instructions.
