Sweet Earth Foods Issues Allergy Alert for Undeclared Egg and Milk in Aloha BBQ Quesadillas

Sweet Earth Foods is initiating a voluntary recall of a limited amount of 8-ounce packages of Sweet Earth Aloha BBQ Quesadilla due to mismatched packaging, resulting in undeclared egg and milk allergens. A UPC code of 016741000551 appears on the back of the package. The “best by” date of 6/28/19 and lot number of 8149 appears on the side of the package.


The product being recalled has Sweet Earth Aloha BBQ Quesadilla exterior packaging but incorrectly contains the Sweet Earth Mile High Quesadilla in an interior clear plastic wrapper that reads “MILE HIGH.” The ingredient statement on the exterior package applies to the Aloha BBQ Quesadilla and does not identify eggs and milk, which are in the Mile High Quesadilla.

The product was produced on May 29, 2018. Sweet Earth determined the limited quantity of product with mismatched packaging was distributed only to Target stores nationally and Strack & Van Til Food Market in Indiana/Illinois.

My grocery store, Wegmans, used its shoppers club information to phone and/or email everybody who's bought that product in the last 60 days. Awesome response, I thought.

I wonder how often we get sick without knowing it's from contaminants in our groceries.

Quick "flu" symptoms that suddenly appear then disappear after 24-48 hours are typically food poisoning. Most of the recalls in this thread though are due to allergens though.

Well, yeah, I have celiac disease and get food-trigger migraines. All members of my household have food allergies and sensitivities. Discerning what comes from bacteria, viruses, and fungi that weren't expected in the food and what came from stray ingredients isn't always possible.
