Dundeis UK Ltd recalls Minton & Donello Organic White Orzo because of undeclared wheat (gluten)

Why it was recalled

Dundeis UK is recalling Minton & Donello Organic White Orzo because it contains wheat that appears neither on the front label nor in the ingredients list. Orzo is a pasta shape normally made from wheat, but shoppers who specifically buy alternatives, or who rely on the ingredients list, were given no warning.

For people with coeliac disease or a wheat or gluten intolerance, an undeclared wheat content in a pantry staple is a meaningful risk, since orzo is often used in everyday cooking.

What you should do

If you have bought the above product and have an allergy or intolerance to wheat or gluten or with coeliac disease, do not eat it. Instead return it to the store from where it was bought for a full refund.

What this means for you

If you or someone in your household avoids wheat or gluten for medical reasons, check your cupboard for this orzo and do not cook with it. Return the pack to the store where you bought it for a full refund. If gluten is not a concern in your house, the pasta itself is ordinary food, though it has been withdrawn from sale. The official FSA notice carries the authoritative pack details and instructions.
