What happened

Paleteria Y Neveria La Rosita recalled Spicy Cucumber Fruit Bars because the package label doesn't list all the artificial food coloring ingredients actually in the product. The bars contain FD&C Yellow #6 and Blue #1, but these weren't declared on the label.

Who is at risk

People with allergies or sensitivities to artificial food dyes (particularly Yellow #6 and Blue #1) should be concerned, as they may have consumed the product without knowing these ingredients were present.
