The problem was discovered when an FSIS employee found that a primary ingredient’s sub-ingredients, which included whey (milk) and wheat, were not listed on the product label. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase.
