According to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Quaker Oats Company has announced that it will be recalling “a limited number” of pancake and waffle mixes because they include milk that has not been reported.
It has been warned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that individuals who have a milk allergy and have purchased the mix run the danger of experiencing a reaction that could be life-threatening or even fatal if they consume the mix.
The Pearl Milling Company Original Pancake and Waffle Mix was delivered to a selection of retail establishments in the following states: Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, Utah, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Mississippi, and Wisconsin. Each box contained two pounds of the mix.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) stated that the affected pancake and waffle mix is wrapped in a cardboard box. A image of the product that was recalled was included in the advisory that the FDA issued. Specifically, the UPC code number is 30000 65040, and the date of the code is BBD SEP 13 25 P.
According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), customers may have purchased the affected product as early as November 18, 2024.
According to the notes provided by the FDA, the best-by date for the product can be located on the top panel of the box. According to an online advisory issued by the firm, this recall has not affected any further goods manufactured by the Quaker Oats firm or the Pearl Milling Company.
The Quaker Oats Company issued a press release on Tuesday, which included the following statement: “If consumers have an allergy or sensitivity to milk, they should not consume the product and should immediately discard it without further consideration.”

This month, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also published a statement on their website, which read as follows: “Food allergies and other types of food hypersensitivities affect millions of Americans and their families.”
Allergic reactions to food are triggered when the immune system of the body reacts to specific proteins found in food. The intensity of food allergic responses can range from moderate symptoms such as hives and swelling of the lips to severe, life-threatening symptoms, which are commonly referred to as anaphylaxis.

Anaphylaxis can involve issues with the respiratory system and shock, which can be fatal.
Sesame, soybeans, fish, milk, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, and crustacean shellfish are the most common allergens found in food, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which continued to underline this fact.
Customers are strongly encouraged to contact the consumer relations hotline of the Quaker Company if they have any more inquiries regarding the ongoing recall.
