CO Company Recalls Sauce Made with Tamari Due to Undeclared Soy Allergen

Seed Ranch Flavor Co. of Boulder, CO, is voluntarily recalling its 5 fl ounce bottles of "Umami Everyday Sauce" and “Everything But The Sushi & Dumplings” sauce because they contain undeclared soy.  The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the soy-containing product was distributed in packaging that did not explicitly reveal the presence of soy. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's production and packaging processes during a label redesign. Production of the products with incorrect labels have been suspended and allergen information clearly disclosed on corrected labels.

The product contains tamari...which is a fermented soybean product.
