P&G Recalls Two Flavors of Pringles
The Procter & Gamble, in response to a recommendation from the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) to the food industry, has said that it has recalled Pringles Restaurant Cravers Cheeseburger potato crisps and Pringles Family Faves Taco Night potato crisps as part of an industry ingredient recall to protect consumers from potential Salmonella exposure.
P&G was notified by one of its suppliers that a seasoning used in these two products contains hydrolyzed vegetable protein (HVP) manufactured by Basic Food Flavors who has voluntarily recalled several lots of this ingredient because of potential salmonella exposure.
As a result, the FDA has recommended that food manufacturers recall certain types of products containing HVP manufactured by Basic Food Flavors, and P&G is complying with this guidance.
The products subjected to recall include: Pringles Restaurant Cravers Cheeseburger, Super Stack Canister, 181 grams 37000 2693 with best by dates 02/2011 and 04/2011. Pringles Family Faves Taco Night, Super Stack Canister, 181 grams 37000 26773 with best by dates 03/2011, 04/2011, 05/2011.
There have been no reports of Salmonella-related illness in relation to these products. No other Pringles varieties or flavors are affected by this recall.
