“Opelle Bakery Egg Bagel Recall: Undeclared Yellow 5.” GovInfoNow, updated October 11, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/22646-opelle-bakery-egg-bagel-recall-undeclared-yellow-5. Based on FDA recall #F-1331-2017 (https://api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22F-1331-2017%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The hazard is an undeclared allergen: Yellow 5. Consumers who are allergic or sensitive to this food dye may experience adverse reactions if they consume the product without knowing it is present, as the label does not warn them.

Who’s affected

Consumers in Florida who purchased the recalled frozen raw egg bagels are at risk, particularly those with allergies or sensitivities to Yellow 5 (Tartrazine). Individuals who have not yet consumed the product can avoid exposure by checking their lot codes.

How to tell if you have this one

Look for Opelle Bakery Egg Bagel (B-105), sold in cases of 96 with each bagel weighing 4 oz. The product is frozen and raw. Check the lot code on the packaging; only those with codes of 369 and below are part of this recall. These items were distributed only within Florida.
