Wonton Specialists — Class III: Wonton Specialist Inc. Cooked Noodle, 16 oz and 5 lb - packaged in clear plastic bags
Wonton Specialist Inc. has initiated a Class III recall for its Cooked Noodle products in 16 oz and 5 lb clear plastic bags due to undeclared FD&C Red No. 40. The recall is currently classified as ongoing.
This recall affects Wonton Specialist Inc., food manufacturers using synthetic colorants, and quality assurance teams responsible for food labeling and ingredient verification.
A Class III designation indicates that the use of or exposure to the product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences. However, the presence of undeclared FD&C Red No. 40 represents a failure in labeling controls, which may suggest gaps in the firm's ingredient review process or supply chain verification.
Quality units should verify that all color additives used in production are reflected accurately on finished product labeling. Firms should reconcile raw material specifications with final label proofs to ensure compliance with FD&C color additive disclosure requirements.
Class III. Reason: Undeclared FD&C Red No. 40. Product: Wonton Specialist Inc. Cooked Noodle, 16 oz and 5 lb - packaged in clear plastic bags. Firm: Wonton Specialists (Brooklyn NY United States). Status: Ongoing.
