Dean Marketing and Roasting 2021 Ltd. has issued a recall for its "Sason Hakola" brand roasted sunflower seeds, specifically the salt-free variety. The company announced the product recall on Tuesday following a consumer complaint and subsequent inspection by the Food Service.
The inspection revealed that the product's labeling was inaccurate, indicating it was salt-free when it actually contained salt, contrary to the packaging's declaration. This discrepancy poses a risk to consumers who are medically required to limit their sodium intake or adhere to a low-sodium diet.
Dean Marketing and Roasting is cooperating with the Central District Food Service to collect the affected product from distribution channels. Consumers who have purchased the product are urged not to consume it, especially those with medical restrictions on sodium intake. The company is taking steps to remove the product from sale.
