Hummus lovers: it's time to check the label of your favorite chickpea spread! The FDA has announced that Canadian company Summer Fresh Salads Inc. is recalling its Wegmans Harissa Hummus Topped With Harissa because it may contain sesame that was not listed on the package. Sesame is an allergen to many, and exposure can be life-threatening.
The recalled hummus was pulled from shelves in Washington D.C., Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.
If this product sounds like it's in your refrigerator, look to see if it's in a 10.5-ounce, clear plastic package with top, side, and bottom labels.
