Norwalk Chile King LLC recalls seven sauces for undeclared soy in CT, NY

Chile King LLC, a Norwalk-based company, is recalling seven flavors of sauces due to undeclared soy on the labels, which poses a serious risk to individuals with soy allergies. The recall was initiated after the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection discovered soy protein in a flavored cider vinegar used by the company, which was not listed on the packaging. The affected sauces were sold at local shops such as The Handmade Hub in Middletown and The B. Hive in Burlington, as well as at farmers markets and events across Connecticut and New York. No illnesses have been reported so far, but customers are urged to return the products for a full refund. The company owner has apologized for the oversight and is working to correct the labeling. Those with soy allergies are warned about the potentially life-threatening reactions from consuming the recalled products.
