Sauce Products Recalled for Missing Shrimp Ingredient

Delicae Gourmet LLC of Tarpon Springs, FL is recalling Thai Peanut Sauce, Panang Curry Sauce, and Spicy Red Curry Sauce, because it contains undeclared shrimp allergen. The recall was initiated after it was discovered that product containing shrimp was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of the shrimp. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's production and packaging processes.

While the pictures of the product posted on the FDA website clearly state 'shrimp', one could guess that a different version of the packaging was used where the shrimp was not listed?
