Publix Rice & Pigeon Peas Recall 2025: Undeclared Soy Allergy Alert
Need-to-know: A.S.K. Foods, LLC is recalling select 32-oz trays of Publix Rice & Pigeon Peas sold exclusively in Florida because soy is not listed on the ingredient label. Shoppers with a soy allergy should verify the lid code, avoid eating the product, and return it to Publix for a full refund.
Why Publix Rice & Pigeon Peas Was Recalled for Undeclared Soy
The tray’s top label correctly reads “Publix Rice & Pigeon Peas,” but the bottom label—intended for “Three Cheese Mac & Cheese”—omits soy. As a result, soy-allergic consumers could unknowingly ingest the allergen and face reactions ranging from hives to life-threatening anaphylaxis.
