DM Light Slices Yellow Cling Peaches -15 oz recall: Undeclared Allergen

DM Light Slices Yellow Cling Peaches -15 oz (425g) 300 x 407

Why was DM Light Slices Yellow Cling Peaches -15 oz recalled?

Between September 7 thru September 29, 2016, consumer complaints led firm to believe that cans of Lite Sliced Peaches were mislabeled as they appeared to contain Fruit Cocktail in Heavy Syrup. The label on the can states Lite Sliced Peaches (Yellow cling peach in Extra Light Syrup) and the product inside contains Fruit Cocktail in Heavy Syrup. Fruit Cocktail contains cherries colored with carmine. FDA regulations requires carmine to be labeled due to its potential allergen status (21 CFR 73.100 (d)(2)).
