FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- October 22, 2008 -- Nonna's Real Italiana Cuccine of Slidell, LA is recalling the following Nonna's Real Italiana Cuccine brand products:

This product is being recalled because it contains milk, soy, and wheat that was distributed in packaging that does not reveal the presence of these ingredients. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk, soy, or wheat run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.

This product is distributed through retailers in the Greater New Orleans area including the Northshore from October 8, 2008 to October 17, 2008. The product is individually wrapped in clear plastic wrap bearing the label: "STUFFED ARTICHOKE, Net Wt. 15 oz., NONNA'S REAL ITALIANA CUCCINE".

There have been no reported illnesses to date.

The above omission was found during a routine FDA inspection. Distribution of these products has been suspended while we correct the labels to include all ingredients.

Consumers who have questions or purchased the product may contact Ruby Lovecchio at 214-253-7630 for information and return instructions.
