Conagra Spaghetti and Meatball Products Recalled for Undeclared Milk

Agency Publication Date: June 9, 2017

Summary

Conagra Brands, Inc. is recalling approximately 717,338 pounds of various canned spaghetti and meatball products because they contain milk, a known allergen that is not listed on the label. The issue was discovered when an ingredient supplier notified Conagra that the bread crumbs used in these products potentially contained undeclared milk. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions to date.

Risk

The product contains milk, which can cause a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if consumed by people with a milk allergy or severe sensitivity.
