On April 26, Elsie Grace Dry Food Co. announced a product recall for its soup and dip mixes due to undeclared allergens. The recalled products are said to contain milk, wheat or soy but are not listed as part of the ingredients on the packages. All of the ingredients are considered common allergens.
