Deano's Pasta is recalling a batch of its Triangoli Ravioli after discovering the product may contain undeclared lobster, pear, and pecorino cheese, ingredients not listed on the package label. The issue was caught after the wrong filling was mistakenly packed into Triangoli Ravioli packaging, creating a serious risk for anyone with shellfish, tree nut, pear, or dairy allergies or sensitivities.
What's Being Recalled?
The recall covers packages of Deano's Pasta Triangoli Ravioli affected by the mislabeling mix-up. The product was sold through retail channels where the mismatched filling ended up inside packaging labeled as Triangoli Ravioli rather than reflecting its actual lobster, pear, and pecorino contents. Consumers should check package labeling and any identifying codes against the details listed on the official FDA notice to confirm whether their product is part of the affected batch.
Why Was This Product Recalled?
This is an allergy alert rather than a contamination issue. The product contains lobster, pear, and pecorino cheese that are not declared anywhere on the label. For people with shellfish allergies in particular, this poses a serious health risk, since allergic reactions to shellfish can be severe and even life-threatening. Those with dairy allergies or pear sensitivities also face unexpected exposure since none of these ingredients were disclosed.
What Should You Do?
If you purchased Deano's Pasta Triangoli Ravioli and have a shellfish, dairy, or pear allergy, do not eat the product. Check your freezer or pantry now and compare your package against the details on the FDA's notice. Affected product should be discarded or returned to the place of purchase for a refund. Anyone who has already eaten the product and experiences allergy symptoms should contact a healthcare provider. Questions about the recall itself should be directed to Deano's Pasta using the contact information listed in the official FDA alert.
