The containers are printed with “Use by” dates of either June 22, 2o14 or June 23, 2014 on the front of the carton above the pour spout. The UPC number is 25293 60101 on the back of the package. The recall only applies to these plant codes: 06/22 or 23/14 hh:mm 48-0994 EH3 – 5 1, 06/22 or 23/14 hh:mm 48-0994 EH3 – 5 2, 06/22 or 23/14 hh:mm 48-0994 EH3 – 4 3, and 06/22 or 23/14 hh:mm 48-0994 EH3 – 4 4.
Fewer than 21,402 units of product have been shipped directly to retailers and wholesalers in Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming. No illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported to date.
An inadvertent error related to using the wrong carton packaging caused the mislabeling. It is not due to contamination in the manufacturing process, according to the company.
