Business Wire
B&G Foods announced today it is voluntarily recalling
individual containers of 5.37 oz. Food Club Garlic Powder, with
“best by” dates of NOV 19 22 and NOV 20 22, because they mistakenly
contain bacon-flavored bits, which contain soy, an allergen
undeclared on the garlic powder labels. People who have an allergy
or severe sensitivity to soy run the risk of serious or
life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the
bacon-flavored bits contained in the recalled containers. There is
no health risk associated with this product for individuals without
an allergy to soy.

This recall affects only the following product, which may have
been distributed in retail stores nationwide:
Description
Consumer
UPC #
Size
Best By
Dates
Food Club Garlic Powder
0-36800-38295-4
5.37 oz. (152g)
NOV 19 22 or NOV 20 22 (The “best
by” date is located on the bottom of the container.)
This recall does not apply to any other “best by” dates,
sizes or varieties of Food Club brand products.
No allergic reactions or consumer complaints related to this
matter have been reported to date. It was determined that 1,301
cases of bacon-flavored bits, which contain soy, an allergen
undeclared on garlic powder labels, may contain some individual
containers inadvertently labeled as garlic powder. Containers
labeled as Food Club Bacon Flavored Bits correctly indicate that
the containers include bacon-flavored bits and correctly declare
the presence of soy. This recall was initiated in cooperation with
the FDA.
The recalled product has clear packaging and therefore it should
be readily apparent to consumers that any mislabeled containers
contain bacon-flavored bits instead of garlic powder. However, out
of an abundance of caution, B&G Foods is issuing this recall
for containers of Food Club Garlic Powder with the particular “best
by” dates listed above.
Consumers who have purchased the recalled product can return it
to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers seeking a
refund or additional information may also contact Topco Associates
LLC by calling 888.423.0139.
