Frozen pancakes recalled for undeclared soy allergen

    If you’re allergic to soy protein and recently picked up a box of frozen pancakes, this recall may be for you.

    Pinnacle Foods Group LLC has recalled some lots of Aunt Jemima Frozen Pancakes that contain the undeclared allergen.

    “The voluntary recall was initiated after the Company discovered there may have been a potential cross-contact with product that contained soy protein being produced on the same equipment,” the company’s release on the FDA website reads.

    “There have been no reports of illness as a result of this incident.”
