CT Firm Recalls Breaded Broccoli Product For Undeclared Allergens

Gracie’s Kitchens of New Haven, CT, is recalling its 20-ounce packages of "King Kullen Broccoli Cutlets with Bread Crumbs and Parmesan" because they may contain undeclared sesame and wheat.  The recall was initiated after it was discovered that a product containing sesame and wheat didn’t include the full ingredient breakdown on the ingredient panel.  The ingredient panel lists Bread Crumbs, but does not break down that into ingredients such as wheat, and thus those are not listed on the label.
