FDA Announces Recall of Popular Hot Sauce for Undeclared Life-Threatening Allergen
T.W. Garner Food Company has issued a recall for select bottles of Texas Pete hot sauce, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) announced on April 3. Certain lots and sizes of the popular Habanero Buffalo Sauce have been recalled because the bottles may actually contain Sriracha Sauce, and thus have undeclared sulfites. The FDA requires that all products that contain sulfites, with a concentration of 10 ppm or more, must declare their presence on the bottle for those with sulfite allergies or sensitivities. Additionally, T.W. Garner Food Company is issuing a recall for select lots of its Texas Pete Sweet CHAbanero Sauce because those bottles have been labeled improperly. The recalled Sweet CHAbanero Sauce contains aged peppers, however, the ingredient "Aged Peppers (Red Habanero Peppers, Salt, Vinegar)" is not listed on the bottle. To determine if you have any of the recalled Texas Pete hot sauces, you'll want to look for the following information on the label. 2-fluid ounce bottle; UPC: 0 75500 28125 9; Best-By Date: Dec. 5, 2025 12-fluid ounce bottle; UPC: 0 75500 10028 4; Best-By Date: Nov. 7, 2025 2-fluid ounce bottle; UPC: 0 75500 53125 5; Best-By Date: Sept. 4, 2027 2-fluid ounce bottle; UPC: 0 75500 53125 5; Best-By Date: Aug. 26, 2027 20-fluid ounce bottle; UPC: 0 75500 00530 5; Best-By Date: Aug. 2, 2027 1/2 gallon bottle; UPC: 0 75500 00536 7; Best-By Date: July 23, 2027; T 088224 Images of the bottles can also be viewed on the FDA's recall page. The recalled hot sauces were sold at retailers in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, North Carolina, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia, and Vermont between Feb. 5, 2025, and March 26, 2025. T.W. Garner Food Company discovered the problem during internal quality testing when it noticed that the Habanero Buffalo Sauce bottle actually contained Sriracha Sauce. It initiated the recall because the Sriracha Sauce contains sodium bisulfite as a preservative, which was not declared on the Habanero Buffalo Sauce bottle. At this time, no illnesses have been reported from either Texas Pete's Habanero Buffalo Sauce or Sweet CHAbanero Sauce. If you have the recalled Habanero Buffalo Sauce and have a sulfite allergy or sensitivity, you should not consume the sauce as it can cause serious or life-threatening allergic reactions. Instead, throw it away or return it to the place of purchase for a refund or replacement. If you have the sauce and don't have a sulfite allergy or sensitivity, you don't have to respond to this recall. The product is not inherently unsafe to consume, it was only recalled due to a labeling error. However, if you would like to replace the recalled Habanero Buffalo Sauce because it may contain the wrong sauce, you are entitled to a replacement or refund. If you have the recalled Sweet CHAbanero Sauce, you don't have to do anything regarding the recall. The product was recalled out of an abundance of caution because the label did not contain all the ingredients. If you want, you can return the product to the place of purchase for a refund or replacement. For any questions regarding the recall, you can contact T.W. Garner Food Company's director of quality insurance at (336) 231-6417 or via email at ContactUs@ Read the original article on ALLRECIPES
