WASHINGTON- Kettle Cuisine Midco, LLC, a Lynn, Mass. establishment, is recalling approximately 200 pounds of ready-to-eat (RTE) lentil and beef soup products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today.
The products contain egg and wheat, known allergens, which are not declared on the product label.
The RTE lentil and beef soup items were produced on Dec. 12, 2019. The following product is subject to recall:

These items were shipped to customers in Connecticut, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C., via internet sales.
