The total adjusted poundage for this recall has been updated from 10,584 pounds to 6,595 pounds. The additional products, which also contain known allergens, were produced from April 6, 2022, through July 13, 2022, without the benefit of inspection. This release has been updated to include the new products, the adjusted total weight, and additional labels.
