A grocery chain based in Eugene, Oregon has pulled one of its prepared salad products from shelves after discovering it contains sesame without proper labeling.
Market of Choice announced the voluntary recall on May 5, 2026, affecting its 9.5-ounce Vegan Kale Caesar Salad due to unlisted sesame ingredients. The company warns that customers who suffer from sesame allergies or sensitivities could experience dangerous or potentially fatal reactions if they eat the contaminated product.
The recall notice comes as food allergies continue to pose serious health threats to millions of Americans, with sesame being recognized as one of the major allergens requiring disclosure on food labels.
Customers who have purchased the affected salad are advised not to consume it and should return the product to the store for a full refund.
