Mac and Cheese Recalled Over Risk of 'Serious or Life-Threatening Allergic Reaction'

Gooder Foods Inc. announced a recall of specific lots of its Goodles mac and cheese products due to undeclared allergens. The Vegan Is Believin’ mac and cheese, marketed as plant-based, may contain milk, while the Here Comes Truffle mac and cheese may contain cashew. These undeclared allergens pose a significant risk to individuals with related allergies.

The recalled lots were produced between April 7 and April 15 and distributed nationally to wholesale distributors, operators, and online retailers between April 29 and Aug. 8. Consumers who have purchased these products should check the lot codes on the packaging.

Recalled Products:

Symptoms of allergic reactions can range from mild to severe, including rashes, hives, sore throat, stomach cramps, difficulty breathing, and anaphylaxis. According to Healthline&ref=yanuki.com, nut allergies affect approximately 20 million people in the United States, and reactions can occur up to six hours after exposure. Mayo Clinic&ref=yanuki.com notes that milk allergies can also cause hives, digestive problems, and anaphylaxis.

Check the lot codes and best buy dates on the packaging. If you have an allergy to milk or cashews and have purchased an affected product, do not consume it. Contact Gooder Foods Inc. for a refund or disposal instructions, and seek medical attention if you experience an allergic reaction.

The recalled products were sold at major retailers, including Walmart, Target, and Kroger, as well as online retailers like Amazon and Instacart.
