Soledad, Calif. – July 11, 2023 – Braga Fresh has announced a voluntary recall impacting a single production run of the 365 by Whole Foods Market Organic Asian Inspired Chopped Salad Kit. This recall specifically concerns the 12oz bags sold at Whole Foods Market locations.
The recall was initiated due to a packaging error where an incorrect condiment pouch containing undeclared milk and egg allergens was included in the salad kits. This poses a significant risk to individuals with milk and egg allergies or sensitivities, potentially leading to serious or life-threatening allergic reactions if the product is consumed.

It is important to note that only products matching all three of these identifiers are included in this recall. The company has confirmed that all affected salad kits have been removed from store shelves to prevent further purchase. No other Braga Fresh or 365 by Whole Foods Market Chopped Salad Kits are involved in this recall and are considered to be correctly labeled. Fortunately, there have been no reports of illnesses or allergic reactions connected to this recalled product to date.
