Food For Life Recalls Spelt Bread

California baker Food For Life has recalled their spelt bread product because it contains spelt. No, really.

Food For Life Baking Company of Corona, California is voluntarily recalling 2,241 cases of Spelt Bread (UPC# 07347200168) because they contain spelt grain which is known to be a hybrid of wheat.

You see under the newly revised food allergen labeling laws, any product that contains one of the leading food allergens must be labelled as containing that allergen. Food For Life Spelt bread contains Spelt, Spelt is a wheat hybrid, the package did not state that the product contains wheat. Ooops.
