A product recall in Israel has been announced for a Pringles snack after a labeling mistake raised concerns about undeclared allergens that could endanger sensitive consumers.
Ben Shalosh Import and Export Ltd. said the issue was discovered following customer complaints, which revealed that packages of Pringles Chili Cheese Fries were mistakenly labeled in Hebrew as Pringles Original—a product that does not contain milk or soy.
In reality, the Chili Cheese Fries variety does include milk and soy ingredients, making it potentially dangerous for individuals with allergies to those substances. The company emphasized that the problem is limited to incorrect labeling, but due to the possible health risk, the product is being pulled from shelves immediately.
The affected item is Pringles Chili Cheese Fries, 158 grams, barcode 038000279201, with an expiration date of January 1, 2027.
The product is manufactured by Kellogg’s USA and imported by Ben Shalosh Import and Export Ltd.
The Health Ministry is advising consumers who are allergic to milk, gluten, or soy not to consume the product under any circumstances. The company is working in coordination with the Northern District Food Service and is actively collecting all affected units from the market.
Customers who purchased the product and wish to return it for a refund can contact customer service at 052-8194838 or by email at [email protected].
