Daiso Snacks are being recalled because they contain soy and milk, two of the nine major food allergens, that are not listed on the label as required by law. Anyone who is allergic to soy or milk, or who is lactose intolerant, could have a serious reaction if they eat these products. No allergic reactions or illnesses have been reported to the company to date in connection with the consumption of these items. The recalling firm is Daiso California LLC of La Mirada, California.
The prepackaged snacks were sold in Daiso stores in these states: California, Washington, Nevada, Texas, New York, and New Jersey. The recall was triggered when the company realized that the packaging did not disclose the presence of all allergenic ingredients that were used to make these products. Sale of the products has been suspended and the products have been pulled from store shelves.
