Standard batch testing showed the presence of gluten from wheat, rye, barley or crossbreeds of the grains.
“At Hometown Food Company, nothing is more important than the safety and integrity of our products,” the announcement says. “While there have been no reports of illnesses to date associated with this product, we are initiating this recall out of an abundance of caution.”
People with the product “in a home or business where someone suffers from wheat allergy, celiac disease or gluten and wheat sensitivity” should throw it away or return it to the store for a refund. The company is offering replacement coupons for the product.
