These products were shipped to retail locations in Ala., Ariz., Calif., Colo., Idaho, Mont., Nev., N.M., Ore., Utah, Wash., and Wyo. The problem was discovered by Taylor Farms Pacific during a routine quality assurance check of ingredient labels. The contract manufacturer then notified FSIS that the product may contain wheat, which is not declared on the label.
The Kroger-branded RTE apple walnut with chicken salad bowls were produced from 2/28/24, through 3/9/24. They are identified as:
- 5.5-oz. clear plastic bowl containers with labeled Kroger Apple Walnut with Chicken Salad Kit for One, with use by dates of 03/12/24 through 03/22/24, featuring lot codes TFPM059B41, TFPM060B41, TFPM061A41, TFPM062A41, TFPM063B41, TFPM064A41, TFPM064B41, TFPM065A41, TFPM066A41, TFPM067A41, TFPM068A41, TFPM069B42, and TFPM071A41.
