Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Kettle Cuisine Midco, LLC is issuing a public health alert for 2-pound tubs of Kirkland Signature Chicken Tortilla Soup because the product is misbranded as gluten-free when it actually contains gluten. The alert affects ready-to-eat soup produced on July 26, 2023, and sold in two-pack tubs. While no adverse reactions have been confirmed, the mislabeling poses a health risk to consumers with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.

Risk

The product's label falsely claims it is gluten-free; however, laboratory testing confirmed the presence of gluten. Consumption by individuals with gluten-related disorders can cause serious adverse health effects.

  2. Verify the establishment number 'P-18468' is located inside the USDA mark of inspection on the packaging.
