FL Company Recalls Frozen Popsicles Due to Undeclared Allergens

DIBE LLC. of MIAMI, FL, is recalling its 6 ounces packages of "TETAS MIREYA SABOR NUTELLA, TODDY, FERRERO, GALLETA MARIA & GALLETA OREO " food popsicles because they may contain undeclared allergens:  The recall was initiated after it was discovered by an Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services supervisor at one retail store called Pastelitos Chips in Orlando, Fl. that the soy, wheat, and walnut-containing products were distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of soy, wheat, and/or walnuts. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's production and packaging processes.

From the pictures, it appears that are some multi-ingredient components that were not broken down to identify the allergens.
