Why the WinCo Foods Hoagie Rolls Were Pulled

United States Bakery, the contract manufacturer for WinCo Foods, discovered that sesame flour was present in the recipe but missing from both the ingredient list and allergen statement. Because sesame became a federally recognized major allergen in 2023, its omission immediately triggers a Class I recall under FDA rules. Although no illnesses have been reported, accidental exposure can cause hives, anaphylaxis or other severe reactions in sensitive individuals.

How to Spot the Recalled Packages

Check the following details on the bag’s front and back panels:

  • Product name: “WinCo Foods Hoagie Rolls”
  • Net weight: 16 oz (1 LB) / 454 g
  • UPC barcode: 2-70552-00649-2 (near the Nutrition Facts)
  • Best-by date range: 9/10/2026 through 11/3/2026

Steps Consumers Should Take

  1. Allergy risk? If you are allergic or sensitive to sesame, do not consume the rolls.
  2. Return or dispose: Bring the product—or just the empty bag with the UPC and date—to any WinCo Foods location for a full refund, or discard it safely.
  3. Need help? Call 1-800-824-1706 (8 a.m.–4 p.m. PST) or use the online form.
