Plain-English summary
City Line Foods Manufacturing Co. is recalling approximately 1,196,669 pounds of frozen pretzel hot dog products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens. The affected products contain soy lecithin, a known allergen that was not declared on the product label. The recall includes various brands such as Auntie Anne's, West Creek, Kunzler, Berks, Nathan's Famous, and City Line Foods pretzel dogs.
The products were produced between February 14, 2014, and November 14, 2014, and shipped nationwide for retail distribution and fundraising. FSIS inspectors discovered the issue during a routine labeling review, finding that a releasing agent used on contact surfaces included soy lecithin. This recall does not affect Auntie Anne's pretzel stores found in malls, airports, and other venues nationwide.
FSIS and the company have received no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers with questions can contact Auntie Anne's Inc. or the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline.
