Why it’s dangerous
The hazard is a cross-contamination and labeling error where Sana Cruz Burritos were placed inside Big Sur Breakfast Burrito pouches. Because the outer packaging lists ingredients for the Big Sur product, it fails to warn consumers that the actual contents contain milk, which can trigger severe allergic reactions in sensitive individuals.
Who’s affected
Consumers who purchased Big Sur Breakfast Burritos in Florida, Texas, Ohio, Indiana, Oregon, California, Washington, or Wisconsin. Individuals with milk allergies are at the highest risk of an allergic reaction due to the undeclared allergen.
How to tell if you have this one
Look for Big Sur Breakfast Burrito packages with a Net Wt. of 7.0 oz. (198 g). Check the bottom or side of the pouch for Lot number 6090 and a Best By date of 3/30/2017. The UPC for individual units is #016741111127.
