Tropical Nut and Fruit Company is recalling their 25 pound box of Truly Goods Food South of the Border Nut Mix because it contains undeclared soy and tree nuts or almonds. Anyone who is allergic to soy or almonds could have a serious or life-threatening reaction if they eat this product. No reactions or illnesses have been reported to the company to date.
The recall was initiated after the company discovered that the wrong product was packaged inside the South of the Border Box, so it contained different allergens than those that were stated on the label. The mislabeled product was distributed used between October 21, 2019 and December 5, 2019.
The mislabeled South of the Border mix box was sent to some retail locations of the specialty grocer The Fresh Market stores. It was sold in the bulk bin section. The recalled product was distributed only to retail stores in these states: North Carolina (excluding Ashville), South Carolina (only Myrtle Beach and Pawley’s Island stores), Virginia, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Connecticut, Kentucky, and Illinois.
NO other Fresh Market locations are affected by this recall. This product has been removed from Fresh Market shelves. The recalled product is sold in 25 pound boxes. The lot number is 29119, the best by date on the product is 04/15/2020, the item number is 102340, and the UPC number is 094184110198.
