Soup and bowl products from several brands are being recalled due to possible extraneous material contamination. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a health alert, urging consumers to check their pantries and refrigerators. The recall comes after FSIS found that the cilantro used, an ingredient in the affected products, may be contaminated with wood.
The soups were distributed in four states: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. If you believe you have affected product, do not eat it.
