What happened

Williams West & Witt's Products Company recalled two crab base products because the labels didn't clearly identify that they contain milk (from butter and cream ingredients). This is a problem because the ingredient list should always disclose major allergens.

Who is at risk

People with milk allergies need to be aware of this recall, as consuming these products could trigger a serious allergic reaction.

What to do

If you have a milk allergy and purchased Primarque Crab Base or Cook's Delight Crab Base (50-pound containers) in bulk, do not use the product. Check your purchase records or contact the supplier to confirm if you have affected batches, then discard them or return them for a refund.
