“Empresas Barsan TITAN Potato Puffs Recall: Missing Sodium Bisulfite Label.” GovInfoNow, updated October 7, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/19795-empresas-barsan-titan-potato-puffs-recall-missing-sodium-bisulfite-label. Based on FDA recall #F-0773-2018 (https://api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22F-0773-2018%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

Sodium bisulfite is a preservative that can cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. The missing label means consumers with specific health conditions might not know they're consuming this ingredient.

Who’s affected

People who purchased TITAN potato puffs from stores that sold them with yellow labels marked 'Expira 12/12/18' or 'Expira 12/14/18' are likely affected. Those with health conditions requiring sodium bisulfite monitoring may be at higher risk.

How to tell if you have this one

Check for yellow stick-on labels with expiration dates '12/12/18' or '12/14/18' on the packaging of TITAN potato puffs. The product is sold in 24-count bags with a net weight of 6.75 pounds.
