The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the product was being manufactured at a plant which also processed wheat products and therefore, there may be a possibility that the product may contain undeclared traces of wheat and the packaging did not mention the presence of traces of wheat as per the declaration required under labelling requirements of FSMA. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused due to misunderstanding of the precautionary labelling done on the product however not as per the labelling requirement of FSMA.

Export and distribution of the product in the USA has been suspended until FDA and the company are certain that the problem has been corrected.

Consumers who have purchased packages of "Asafoetida " Vandevi Yellow powder are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.
