This recall involves approximately 1,848 cases of Tokyo Nori U.S.A Sushi Wasabi in 5-gram individual consumer size mini packs. The product was recalled because the labeling fails to declare the presence of the color additive Yellow 5, which is an allergen for certain individuals. The affected wasabi was distributed to wholesale distributors, retail customers, and restaurants.
Individuals who have a sensitivity or allergy to Yellow 5 (tartrazine) may experience allergic-type reactions if they consume this product. In some cases, exposure to undeclared allergens can lead to serious health complications for sensitive people.
