Class II U.S. Food and Drug Administration

Mid Dolciaria Srl Cannoli Siciliani recall: The product contains unapproved colors chlorophyll E140 and E141

Recall published 4 months ago

The product contains unapproved colors chlorophyll E140 and E141.

The hazard: Mislabelling or misbranding

The product and the packaging do not match. For most people that is an annoyance; for anyone reading the label for a medical reason it is a genuine risk.

What the notice says: The product contains unapproved colors chlorophyll E140 and E141.

Why it matters: The product carries the wrong label, the wrong lid or the wrong packaging. The food inside is generally fine; the problem is that the package describes something else, which defeats anyone relying on it.

Symptoms and when to call a doctor

There is no illness associated with mislabelling itself. The exception is where the undeclared contents include an allergen, in which case treat it as an allergen recall and watch for the reaction that person normally has.

This page is general information, not medical advice. If you feel unwell, a clinician who can see you is the only person able to judge your case.

What to do about Mislabelled

Mid Dolciaria Srl — The product and the packaging do not match. For most people that is an annoyance; for anyone reading the label for a medical reason it is a genuine risk.

  1. Read the official notice to see what is actually inside the pack, then decide whether anyone in your home needs to avoid it.
  2. Return it for a refund; a mislabelled pack is returnable whether or not it is edible for your household.
  3. Keep a photo of the mismatched label, which makes the refund conversation much shorter.
  4. Check the lot code on your pack — these mix-ups are usually confined to a short production window.

Getting a refund without the pack

The commonest reason people skip the refund is that they have already thrown the item away. That rarely matters.

  • A photo of the label and lot code is accepted by most grocers, and so is a card statement line showing the purchase.
  • Store credit is often offered first. You can ask for the original payment method instead, and it is normally granted.
  • No photo either? Ask anyway. Grocery chains settle recall refunds at the service desk because disputing them costs more than paying them.
  • For a multi-pack or a case, ask for the full purchase price rather than a per-unit figure — the recall covers what you paid.
