Testing prompts recall after finding undeclared sulfite in sweetened strawberries
SunTree Snack Foods LLC, of Phoenix, AZ, is recalling Good & Gather Dried Sweetened Strawberries because the product contains undeclared sulfite.
The recall was initiated after Florida’s Department of Agriculture performed a sampling. The results of the sampling indicated the lots contained sulfites that were not declared on the label.
People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to sulfites run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions if they consume these products.
The recalled packages are resealable stand up pouches that were distributed to retail stores nationally. SunTree Snack Foods, LLC is initiating the voluntary recall out of an abundance of caution to protect public health.
