What happened

Two batches of Sysco Classic Liquid Margarine were mislabeled as canola oil and failed to list soy lecithin as an ingredient. The product was distributed to two locations in Arizona and Utah.

Who is at risk

People with soy allergies or sensitivities need to be aware of this issue, as the mislabeling means they may not have known the product contained soy lecithin.

What to do

If you purchased Sysco Classic Liquid Margarine (99961WFS, 2 x 17.5 lb containers) from locations in Arizona or Utah, check the lot code and do not use the product if you have a soy allergy. Contact the retailer or Ventura Foods for more information about affected lot numbers.
