Summary

Yem Foods LLC is recalling approximately 4,095 units of Priyems brand Sambar Spicy Lentil Soup, Sambar Coconut & Onion Spicy Lentil Soup, Lemon Pickle, and Mango Pickles.

There have been no reported incidents or injuries to date. These products were sold in retail grocery stores and are found in frozen and refrigerated sections.
