FDA is recalling more than 32,000 packages of these popular breadcrumbs sold nationwide
Food producer La Fiesta is recalling two types of its breadcrumbs due to concerns the product can cause severe allergic reactions.
The California-based company has recalled 26,400 eight-ounce packages of its Unseasoned Bread Crumbs (Pan Rayado) and 6,240 eight-ounce packages of its Seasoned Bread Crumbs (Pan Rayado Sazonado) because the products contain sesame as an “undeclared allergen” identified as sesame.
“People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to sesame run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products,” according to an announcement from the FDA.
The FDA also reports the labels do not include the allergen declaration in Spanish. As of Jan. 28, no illnesses in connection with the recall have been reported, according to the FDA.
The Unseasoned Bread Crumbs (Pan Rayado) were sold nationwide from April 10, 2024 through January 22, 2025. The items have the UPC No. 032327000886 and lot codes 26032; 26073; 26082; 26092; and 26094.
