“Michael Angelo's Shrimp Scampi Recall: Undeclared Allergens.” GovInfoNow, updated October 9, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1275584-michael-angelo-s-shrimp-scampi-recall-undeclared-allergens. Based on USDA FSIS recall #059-2016 (https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/michael-angelos-gourmet-foods-inc--recalls-shrimp-scampi-products-due-misbranding).
Why it’s dangerous
The hazard arises from misbranding where a chicken piccata product is packaged in shrimp scampi containers. This results in undeclared allergens (chicken, egg, and soy) being present without warning on the label, posing a risk of allergic reaction to sensitive individuals.
Who’s affected
Consumers in the Southeastern U.S. who purchased the specific recalled shrimp scampi boxes are at risk of an allergic reaction if they consume the mislabeled chicken product. Individuals with allergies to chicken, egg, or soy are particularly vulnerable.
How to tell if you have this one
Look for 26-oz. boxes labeled "Michael Angelo's Uncompromisingly Italian-Style Shrimp Scampi with Linguini Pasta in a Fresh Heirloom Garlic-Butter Sauce." Check for the packaging date of May 7, 2016, the BEST IF USED BY date of May 7, 2017, and UPC code 0 37363 98377 0. These items do not bear the USDA mark of inspection.
