The agency’s classification

USDA FSIS: Public Health Alert

Public Health Alert is a warning FSIS issues when there is a food-safety concern but a recall is not requested, typically because the affected product is no longer available for purchase.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

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 on common allergens (shrimp) and misbranding, which fits the 'High' severity criteria. No illnesses or injuries have been reported.

Plain-English summary

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has issued a public health alert for frozen chicken and vegetable wonton soup products due to undeclared allergens and misbranding. The specific product involved is 10.75-oz. containers labeled as “TRADER MING’S CHICKEN & VEGTABLE Wonton Soup” with lot code 31FA322. These products were produced by Fortune Avenue Foods, Inc. on November 18, 2021, and bear establishment number EST. P-18823.

The alert was issued because the products may contain shrimp and pork, both of which are not declared on the product label. The issue was discovered after the producing establishment received a consumer complaint stating that shrimp and pork were present in the bowls labeled as chicken and vegetable wonton soup. FSIS notes that a formal recall was not requested because it is believed the products are no longer available for purchase, though some may remain in consumers' freezers.

There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Consumers with allergies to shrimp or pork are urged not to consume the product. Those who have purchased these items should throw them away or return them to the place of purchase. Anyone concerned about an illness should contact a health care provider.
