FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - June 5, 2013 - Creole & Company, LLC of New Orleans, LA, is recalling its 3.47 oz ounce package of Creole Bisque because it contains milk, soy, and wheat and was distributed without the ingredient statement which declares its presence. People who have allergies to milk, soy, and wheat run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.

The recalled packages of Creole Bisque were distributed in Louisiana in retail stores.

The product comes in a 3.47 oz ounce, clear plastic package with UPC 8117766014869.

No illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this problem.

The recall was initiated after it was discovered that packages of the Creole Bisque were distributed in packaging that did not have an ingredient statement. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's production and packaging processes. Production and distribution of the product has been suspended until further notice.

Consumers who have purchased 3.47 ounce packages of Creole Bisque are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 225-362-0819, Monday through Friday, 12 AM – 4 PM.
