Frankie's Organic Issues Recall Due to Milk Allergens

Frankie's Organic, a popular brand known for its plant-based snacks, has announced a recall of 94 cases of its Plant-Based Vegan Cheddar Puffs. The recall is due to the potential presence of undeclared milk in the product, posing a serious risk to individuals with milk allergies or severe sensitivities.

Consumers who may have purchased this product are urged to check their pantries for any bags of Vegan Cheddar Puffs with the Best If Used By date of May 16, 2027. The recall affects items sold in various locations, including PCC Markets in Washington and Earth Fare Stores in Florida and South Carolina, as well as select independent retailers within these regions.

The decision to recall was prompted after Frankie's Organic received two complaints related to allergic reactions from individuals who consumed the product. Thankfully, no severe cases were reported, but the company takes such incidents very seriously and prioritizes consumer safety. Frankie's Organic is working with three distribution centers in an effort to remove any remaining inventory of the affected product from circulation.

The specific details regarding the recalled product are as follows:

• - Product Name: Frankie's Organic Plant-Based Vegan Cheddar Puffs

The cause of the undeclared allergen has been traced back to a seasoning ingredient sourced from a supplier, highlighting the need for robust quality control measures. As a response to this incident, Frankie's Organic has committed to implementing corrective actions to prevent future occurrences.
