There is a new recall involving the beloved Mac & Cheese product, so fans should check their home supply.
The ingredients listed on this brand of mac & cheese, however, include milk, a possible allergen that is not included in the ingredient listing, BGR reported.
You can enjoy your Amy’s Vegan Organic Rice Mac & Cheeze, as long as you aren’t allergic to milk or have other milk intolerances.
The Recall is Ongoing
This week, Amy’s Kitchen issued a recall for mac and cheese. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) then shared an official press release online.

The FDA has been notified and Amy’s Kitchen is advising all customers and distributors to dispose of the recalled products.
There were 15,626 Mac & Cheese cases recalled by Amy’s Kitchen that might be contaminated with milk. In total, that’s nearly 200,000 boxes.
