US/Washington: The US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (“FSIS”), a statutory regulatory and food safety authority, issues a public health warning against the consumption of certain batch/lots of Ready Pac Food’s Bistro Grande Southwestern Style Salads with Chicken from the American marketplace due to suspected mislabeling and/or mispackaging and consequential risks of undeclared Anchovy Fish and Wheat, both known allergens, sources of dietary intolerance and possible triggers of Anaphylaxis, a serious and potential fatal situation, requiring immediate medical intervention.

Please consult the photograph above for details of the food’s packaging, design and retail presentation. Additional images of the Salads can be found on the Web site above.

These prepared Salad Kits were known to be marketed, distributed and sold in the US states of California and Nevada, although it is always possible these food products had wider distribution within the country. When in doubt, please contact the manufacturer for specific product information.

According to the USDA, it has warned against the consumption of certain batch/lots of Bistro Grande Southwestern Style Salads with Chicken from the American marketplace due to suspected mislabeling. As a direct result of this suspected defect, you should neither serve nor consume the recalled Salads identified above.

In this case, this warning was issued after it was reported that Bistro Grande Southwestern Style Salads with Chicken with Salsa Ranch Dressing actually contain another of the company’s Salad products, specifically, Chicken Caesar Salad, a food product that contains Anchovy Fish and Wheat.
