WASHINGTON – A Fairmont, Minn., facility run by Fairmont Foods Inc., announced a Nov. 2 recall of approximately 147,132 lbs. of frozen spaghetti loops with meat sauce entrée products due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the US Dept. of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said.
The problem was discovered by the producing establishment while conducting a routine ingredient label review.
The company notified FSIS that egg, a known allergen, was not declared on the finished product label. The problem occurred after a change in noodle formulation by the supplier.
The frozen not ready-to-eat spaghetti loops with meat sauce entrée products were produced on various dates from December 2022, through August 2023. The following products are subject to recall:
- 7.25-oz tray in-box packages containing “kidfresh Spaghetti Loops Meat Sauce” with lot codes FF120722, FF011823, FF021623, FF032323, FF042623, FF071923, or FF081023 and a “best if used by” date ranging from April 2024 to December 2024 on the side of the box.
The products subject to recall bear the establishment number “EST. 2WM” on the side of the box, below the “best if used by” date. These items were shipped to distributors in Georgia, Indiana and Texas for further distribution to the retail level.
One customer who has an egg allergy reported an adverse reaction after eating the product.
