Company Announcement

Weis Markets today announced it has issued a recall for its in-store $7 Crab Cake Meal for not declaring milk as an allergen on its label.  Food allergies are an immune system reaction that occurs soon after eating a food containing an allergen. Even a tiny amount of the allergy-causing food can trigger signs and symptoms such as digestive problems, hives or swollen airways. In some people, a food allergy can cause severe symptoms or even a life-threatening reaction known as anaphylaxis.

The product is in a 3-compartment container sold in the deli. This recall is being issued as a precaution. The sell by dates affected are 8/25/2021 through 9/05/2021. The issue was discovered during a routine inspection. Customers may return the product for a full refund.
