Hy-Vee stores are recalling one of their products because of a packaging mix-up, incorrectly labeling macaroni salad as potato salad.
A company spokesperson said the three-pound containers of “Hy-Vee American Macaroni Salad” was incorrectly labeled and may contain undeclared milk and wheat (gluten).
According to the company, the recalled product is labeled as “Hy-Vee American Macaroni Salad” on the lid but “Hy-Vee Dijon Mustard Potato Salad” on the tub. The product is actually Hy-Vee American Macaroni Salad containing milk and wheat (gluten) ingredients, which are not declared on the tub.
The macaroni salads are typically sold in the ready-to-eat section in refrigerated cases. The packaging is a frosted clear tub with a black plastic lid. The recalled product has a “best if used by” date of “7/31/2015″ and a production lot code of “15177D.” You can find these on the side of the frosted clear tub.
D&D Foods distributed the salads and sent them to 236 grocery stores in the Midwest, including all of Iowa and Illinois’ Hy-Vee stores. The macaroni salads were also sent to Hy-Vee stores in Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.
There have been no illnesses reported in connection with the mix-up. If you have bought this mis-marked macaroni salad, you are urged to return it to your local Hy-Vee store for a full refund. Any questions about the recall can be directed to Hy-Vee Customer Care representatives at any time at 1-800-772-4098.
