Reser's Fine Foods Recalls Molly Kitchen's Tuna Salad Due to Undeclared Fish Allergen

What Happened

Reser’s Fine Foods, Inc. has initiated a voluntary recall of Tuna Salad because the product containers were mislabeled with lids for Chicken Salad. This labeling error resulted in the omission of fish (tuna) as a declared allergen on the packaging. This poses a significant health risk to consumers with an allergy or severe sensitivity to fish.

Which Products Are Affected

The recall affects 149 cases (298 total tubs) distributed in Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, and Washington. The specific product details are as follows:

• Product Name: Molly Kitchen’s Tuna Salad (mislabeled as Chicken Salad on the lid)
• Container Size: 5 lb plastic tub
• Lid Item Number: 789953
• Lid UPC: 7 5810830149 8
• Master Case Item Number: 794599
• Master Case UPC: 075810876447
• Lot Code: 1410100754
• Use By Date: FEB/21/26

The immediate 5-lb tubs have no side labeling; the misidentification occurs solely on the lid. The master cardboard case labels are correctly marked as Tuna Salad.

What You Should Do

Consumers who have purchased the affected Molly Kitchen’s product and have an allergy or sensitivity to fish should not consume it. The product should be discarded or returned to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Why This Matters

This is a Class I recall, the most serious category, indicating that exposure to the undeclared fish allergen could cause serious adverse health consequences or death for individuals with specific food allergies.
