Yo just saw this and wanted to flag it - there's been a pretty serious bread allergen recall that went down a few years back but figured people should still know about it. Flowers Foods had this whole thing where they accidentally packaged their butterbread (which has milk) into Nature's Own Honey Wheat packaging that wasn't supposed to have milk listed. Like 3,000 loaves got mixed up across Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming, California, and Nevada. If you're allergic to milk that's obviously a problem.



Same time period, this Washington-based bakery called Bosket Bread also had to pull 54 units of their bread products because they might have had undeclared soy, wheat, milk, sesame, or egg in them. Those were distributed locally in Leavenworth and Wenatchee. The thing about these bread allergen situations is they can actually be dangerous for people with severe allergies - we're talking potential life-threatening reactions here.

So if you somehow still have any of those products lying around (the Flowers Foods ones had best-by dates from December 2021, and Bosket's stuff had a 6-day shelf life from mid-December), just toss them or take them back to the store for a refund. Crazy how these allergen mix-ups happen with bread packaging. The companies said they hadn't heard of any actual allergic incidents but still - good reminder to always double-check ingredient labels when you have allergies.
