Although ingredient statement lists "Tamari", Label lacks statement, "Contains Soy."

The product lists 'Tamari' as an ingredient but does not include a statement that it contains soy. This could be problematic for individuals with soy allergies who need to know if the product contains soy.
People who have purchased Roots Roasted Red Bell Pepper Hummus (8oz or 16oz) with the UPC 860971000023 or 723175787605 are affected. Those with soy allergies are at higher risk.

Look for a label statement that says 'Contains Soy' on the product packaging.
The recall is due to the label not stating 'Contains Soy' despite listing 'Tamari', which may contain soy. People with soy allergies should avoid this product until the label is corrected.
