The recall was initiated after it was
discovered that a trace of seasoning, that contains soy protein, may have been
distributed into packages that did not reveal the presence of soy protein on
the labeling.
People who have allergies to soy protein run
the risk of serious or life threatening allergic reaction if they consume this
product.
No illnesses have been reported to date in
connection with this product.
The recalled chips were distributed to
retail grocery stores, club stores, and institutional/restaurant accounts.
This concern has been corrected by MFPS by removing mislabeled products from
retail sales outlets. In addition, MFPS has modified the manufacturing process
to eliminate the issue.
Consumers who
have purchased these products are urged to return them to the place of purchase
for a full refund. Consumers with questions should contact Julie Martin
at Martin’s Famous Pastry Shoppe, Inc. at 1-800-548-1200 (M-F 8:30 a.m. to 4:30
p.m. EST).
