Product Description

Maesri Brand Shrimp Powder, 6.oz

Reason for Recall

The New York Department of Agriculture and Markets notified Eastland Food Corp. that they analyzed a sample of the shrimp powder and determined that the product contained FD&C Yellow #6, but the label failed to declare its presence. Yellow #6 can cause an allergic reaction for a small population of individuals.

Distribution Pattern

The shrimp powder is manufactured in Thailand and imported to the United States by Eastland. Eastland then distributes the shrimp powder nationwide to retail stores.
