A California food distributor is recalling imported Worcester Sauce and Chuno Sauce due to undeclared soy on the label. The recall was initiated after it was discovered that product containing Soy was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of Soy allergen

It seems that the Fermented Seasoning would be the source of the soy.
