FSIS discovered the issue during a routine label review. There have been no confirmed reports of allergic reactions, but consumers with allergies to soy, fish, or egg are urged not to eat these products. Items should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
FSIS is concerned some products may still be in consumers’ refrigerators or freezers.
