Wheat is identified as one of the nine major food allergies in the U.S., along with milk, eggs, fish, Crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, soybeans, and sesame. <\/p>\n
Allergic reactions to these nine foods vary but can involve \u201chives and lip swelling to severe, life-threatening symptoms, often called anaphylaxis, that may involve fatal respiratory problems and shock,\u201d according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. <\/p>\n
Many food products in the U.S. have been recalled due to allergy risks recently. Last month, Taylor Fresh Foods recalled its Balsamic Salad Kit 6\/8.3oz 8.3oz because it may contain undeclared sesame and soy allergens. <\/p>\n
According to the FDA, master packs \u2014 individual packets of dressing and toppings supplied by Latitude 36 Foods and included in Taylor Farms salad kits \u2014 incorrectly included Asian Sesame Ginger dressing rather than the intended Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing.<\/p>\n
In April, T.W. Garner Food Company recalled its Texas Pete Habanero Buffalo Sauce because it may have contained Sriracha Sauce, which includes sulfites \u2014 a known allergen not disclosed on the product label. Sulfites can trigger severe or potentially fatal allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.<\/p>\n
Many foods have also been recalled lately due to contamination concerns. Earlier this week, the Middlefield Original Cheese Co-Op facility, based in Ohio, announced a recall of a variety of its cheeses because they may have been contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, a disease-causing bacteria.<\/p>\n
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Listeria is a \u201cbacteria that can contaminate many foods,\u201d with infections caused by eating food with Listeria monocytogenes bacteria. Although symptoms can vary, a listeria infection can \u201ccause invasive illness and intestinal illness.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Read more Costco is recalling its popular Dubai-style chocolate due to an undeclared wheat allergen. The popular retailer issued a notice Thursday about the Dubai-Style Chocolate, made by Rolling Pin, saying the packaging noted that the snack contained gluten when the label should have said it has wheat. Affected chocolates, filled with a pistachio spread and Kataifi pastry, were sold to Costco members between May 1, 2025, and August 29, 2025. \u201cWe assess the health risk to be minimal as gluten is listed on the allergen statement and gluten is found in wheat,\u201d Rolling Pin said in a statement in Costco\u2019s announcement. \u201cIn addition, Kunefa (which is known to contain wheat) is also listed in the ingredient statement.\u201d There haven\u2019t been any illnesses due to the product reported to date.
