In the past 24 hours, two distinct food items have been recalled due to undisclosed egg ingredients, as reported by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). One involves a macaroni and cheese product sold nationwide at Whole Foods Market locations, while the other pertains to vegetable glass noodles distributed to H Mart stores across several states. Although no illnesses have been reported so far, both companies have taken steps to address the issue.

The recall encompasses Small Bites Macaroni & Cheese packages and Jinga Glass Noodles with Vegetables, highlighting potential risks for individuals with egg allergies. Both manufacturers are urging customers to dispose of the affected products or return them for refunds, emphasizing measures to prevent future occurrences.

Macaroni & Cheese Recall: Addressing Unintended Ingredients

A Texas-based company, C.H. Guenther & Son LLC, has issued a recall for its frozen macaroni and cheese bites after discovering possible traces of undeclared eggs and meat. These items were available in the frozen sections of grocery stores under the label "365 Whole Foods Market Small Bites Macaroni & Cheese." The recall applies specifically to products with a "best-by" date of November 29, 2025, purchased between February 6 and March 11, 2025.

This situation arose following customer feedback indicating that the product contained unexpected meat components. The manufacturer insists this issue has been rectified and assures that other production batches remain unaffected. Consumers who bought these items are encouraged to either discard them or return them to the store with proof of purchase for a full refund. To ensure safety and prevent similar issues in the future, the company has implemented additional safeguards.

Glass Noodles Recall: Allergy Concerns Take Center Stage

New York-based HAR Maspeth Corporation initiated a recall for its 8-ounce and 12-ounce packages of "Jinga Glass Noodles with Vegetables (Japche)" after detecting undeclared eggs. This oversight poses significant risks to consumers with egg allergies, potentially leading to severe allergic reactions if consumed. The products bear "best-by" dates ranging from March 13 to March 18, 2025, and are identifiable through specific UPC codes.

State inspectors in New York identified the presence of eggs during routine retail inspections, which were not listed on the packaging labels. The corporation advises purchasers of these specific batches to return them to the point of sale for a complete refund. Despite no reported incidents of illness or allergic responses thus far, HAR Maspeth Corporation remains vigilant in ensuring product integrity and safeguarding public health. Moving forward, they will adopt enhanced labeling practices to avoid such oversights in the future.
