Foods Processing LLC of Brooklyn, NY is recalling 477 cases of 2 varieties of Egg Custard Steamed Buns because they may contain undeclared sesame. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to sesame run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products. The items were distributed in 27 states (AZ, CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, HI, IL, KY, KS, LA, MA, MD, ME, MO, NC, NE, NJ, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, TX, UT, VA, WA) through Asian grocery stores.

The mislabeling was identified internally. The recall was initiated after it was discovered that 6 cases of Sesame Steamed Buns may have been packaged in Egg Custard Steam Bun packaging. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's packaging processes, which has been corrected.
Consumers should return the affected product to the store where they purchased it with the uneaten buns and packaging for a full refund.
In case you experience harm from allergens or undeclared ingredients, it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve issues and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
