Plain-English summary

Spiceco, Inc. is recalling Hytop Seasoned Salt packed for Federated Group, Inc. The recall was initiated because the product may contain undeclared peanut protein. This action follows an initial recall of Pride of Szeged Sweet Hungarian Paprika, which was found to potentially contain peanut protein.

The affected product is Hytop Seasoned Salt in two sizes: 5.25 oz. (149 g) with UPC 050700083964 and 16 oz. (454 g) with UPC 050700482576. The specific lots involved are #111117SESA67HT and #091617SESA16NL. A total of 980 cases were distributed nationwide and to foreign markets.
