MorningStar was informed by a third party supplier that a spice ingredient used in both the spicy and chipotle black bean burgers may contain peanuts, a serious allergen that was not listed in the products’ ingredients. The error has the potential to cause life threatening health complications for those with serious peanut allergies.
The product was sold throughout the United States in retail stores and through food services. At this point, no adverse events have been reported.
