Shanghai style noodles recalled for undeclared egg and two color additives

Plain-English summary

Twin Marquis brand Thick Shanghai Style Plain Noodle, net weight 16 oz, is being recalled because the product contains undeclared egg, FD&C Yellow 5 and FD&C Yellow 6. The label lists bleached wheat flour, water, corn starch, salt and sodium benzoate, declares wheat, and notes the product is produced on machinery that uses eggs.

The recall covers 5,080 packages with the date code 05520 stamped on the back of the package, distributed in Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Florida and Connecticut. The FDA has classified the recall as Class I.

Egg is a major allergen that must be declared. People with an allergy or sensitivity to egg risk a serious reaction if they eat the product, and those who avoid the listed colour additives cannot identify them from the label either.

Anyone holding a package with that date code should not eat it and should follow the retailer's instructions.
