PT Food Co-op

Truitt Premium White Beans Mislabeled/ Voluntary Recall – The Port Townsend Food Co-op does not carry this product.

Reason: Truitt discovered an accidental mixture of a small amount of a chili product has occurred with our 15 0z. Premium White Beans. There is nothing wrong with this chili product other than it is incorrectly labeled as white beans (UPC 008222524145) and therefore has ingredients not declared by the label. It is unclear as to what point in time the actual cased product in question was forwarded, so Truitt cannot target a specific P.O. or shipping order number.

Truitt needs to have storage & shelves checked as immediately as possible to stop any further dissemination of this product in the marketplace. The problem in its entirety encompasses a maximum of 93 individual cans.  The cans in question are marked with the lot code “S1GTD” and bear the product code of “MDSB” rather than “NDSB”.  The lot code is located as the last 5 characters on the top line of coded information on each can.

Unilever Issues Allergy Alert on Pints of Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Nougat Crunch Ice Cream - Date codes:  JUL1113BJ1, JUL1213BJ1, AUG0113BJ1, AUG0213BJ1, AUG2313BJ1, AUG2413BJ1, AUG2513BJ1, SEP2013BJ1, SEP2113BJ1, OCT2313BJ1. (The date code can be found on the bottom of the pint). The Port Townsend Food Co-op does not carry this product.

Reason: Unilever is voluntarily recalling pint containers of its Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Nougat Crunch Ice Cream: Sweet Cream Ice Cream with Fudge Covered Wafer Cookies & a Chocolate Nougat Swirl (“Chocolate Nougat Crunch”) that are missing the allergen advisory statement, “Allergy Information: Fudge covered wafer pieces have been manufactured on shared equipment that processes peanuts and tree nuts.”  This allergen advisory statement should be at the end of the ingredients list but was inadvertently omitted from the recalled product.  People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts or tree nuts (chestnuts, Brazil nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, pecans, pine nuts and cashews) run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the recalled product.  No illnesses have been reported to date.

The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the ingredient label on pint containers did not include this information.  This voluntary recall is being conducted with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The product was manufactured in the United States.  The product was distributed nationwide and reached consumers through retail stores.  No product was shipped outside of the U.S.  No other Ben & Jerry’s products are affected by this voluntary recall, including bulk (2.4 gallon) containers of Chocolate Nougat Crunch served in Ben & Jerry’s franchised Scoop Shops.

The company is issuing an alert through the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network.
