Carolina Ingredients is recalling approximately 2,715 bags of Beef Gravy Mix and five other seasoning varieties because they may contain elevated levels of lead. The issue was discovered after a customer notified the firm of potential lead in the products, which was later confirmed through laboratory testing. These products were distributed to a single customer in Georgia between September 2020 and August 2021. Consumers should return these products to the place of purchase for a full refund.
The seasoning products may contain elevated levels of lead, which is a toxic substance that can cause serious health problems if ingested, particularly in children and pregnant women. While no injuries have been reported to date, lead exposure can result in damage to the brain and nervous system.
Full refund upon return.
