On May 21, the company issued an allergy alert for its 24-ounce cups of minestrone after determining the product may contain undeclared shrimp. The recall was triggered when an in-store inspection found a single cup containing the incorrect product — one with shrimp rather than the labeled minestrone.

The affected soup was distributed in Alabama, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. The District of Columbia was also included in the distribution.
