Hillside Quickie Too Recalls Jamaican Spice Tempeh Sandwiches for Allergen Mislabeling

Hillside Quickie Too is recalling Jamaican Spice Tempeh sandwiches because the wheat bun was not listed in the 'Contains' allergen statement, posing a risk to consumers with wheat allergies.

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 for wheat, a common allergen, which fits the rubric criteria for a High severity score (3).

Plain-English summary

Hillside Quickie Too is recalling Jamaican Spice Tempeh sandwiches, which are tofu sandwiches served on bread or a bun and enclosed in a clamshell container. The recall is due to a labeling error where the wheat bun is declared in the ingredients statement, but the 'Contains' statement only lists soy, failing to identify wheat as a major allergen.

The affected products were distributed in Washington. The recall covers items with 'Use By' dates of August 30 and September 2. Consumers with wheat allergies or celiac disease should not consume these products.

Consumers who have purchased these sandwiches should check their refrigerators and discard any affected items or return them to the place of purchase for a refund.
