Colorado Firm Recalls Bread Crumbs for Undeclared Allergens

VH Foods Inc. DBA Outside The Breadbox of Colorado Springs, CO is recalling its 8 ounce packages of "Bread Crumbs" because they may contain undeclared egg and milk.  The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the egg and milk product was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of eggs or milk. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's production and packaging processes.  

One could guess that the wrong bread crumbs were added to the prelabeled package.  Here, proper labeling of in-process product and then selection of that product is so important.  Allergen Preventive Controls need to address these elements.    Note that the label does have the precautionary statement, but that does nothing to prevent this recall.

This was an isolated incident occurring on one production date.  The recalled "Bread Crumbs" were distributed in Colorado retail stores and through mail orders.
