Margarine Recalled; Mislabeled as Unsalted
- Share via
A labeling mix-up that could pose a danger to people with dairy allergies is prompting the recall of 3,000 pounds of Fleischmann’s margarine sold in 19 states.
Fleischmann’s Original stick margarine was labeled Fleischmann’s Unsalted stick margarine. The original contains whey, which could trigger a serious, even life-threatening, reaction for those with dairy allergies. The Food and Drug Administration said two consumers have reported reactions.
Consumers with dairy allergies should return the recalled margarine to the place of purchase for a refund, said manufacturer ConAgra Diary Foods of Downers Grove, Ill.
The recalled margarine bears the code “JAN 31 02 O N” near the “best if used by” date.
