Plain-English summary
Kraft Heinz Company is recalling approximately 959 pounds of ready-to-eat Lunchables Ham and American Cracker Stackers packaged lunch products. The recall is due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, specifically wheat and soy, which are not listed on the product label.
The affected products were produced on September 21, 2016, and bear establishment number EST. 537K. They were shipped to retail locations in Utah and California. The issue was discovered on October 6, 2016, following a consumer complaint, and the firm determined that the products were incorrectly labeled with the back label for a Nacho Lunchable product, which failed to declare the wheat and soy ingredients.
