The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service or FSIS has warned against a salad product labeled as Bistro Grande Southwestern Style with Chicken citing misbranding and undeclared wheat and fish (anchovies) allergens.
The salad product labeled as Southwestern Style with Chicken may actually contain Chicken Caesar Salad containing wheat and fish. These known allergens are not declared on the product label.
The public health alert has been issued to ensure that consumers with allergies to wheat and fish are aware about the misbranded product. A recall was not requested as the affected product is no longer available for purchase.
The product subject to the health alert include 11.75-oz. bowls containing “Bistro Grande Southwestern Style With Chicken With Salsa Ranch Dressing” with use by date “JUN 12 2024,” lot code “217638176,” and establishment number “P-27497”.
The salad bowls were packaged on May 28, and shipped to retail locations in California and Nevada.
The alert was issued after the agnecy was notified by the producing establishment about a consumer complaint that a salad product labeled as Bistro Grande Southwestern Style with Chicken contained Chicken Caesar Salad.
However, there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products so far.
Over concern that some product may be in consumers’ freezers, the FSIS urged them to throw away the product or return to the place of purchase.
In similar incidents, the FSIS recently warned against Brett Anthony Foods’ Wow Bao bao Thai-style curry chicken sold by Walmart Inc. retail stores, citing misbranding and undeclared soy and sesame allergens.
