(Lynn, MA) Kettle Cuisine is recalling 24-ounce cups of Whole Foods Market Kitchen minestrone soup due to potential undeclared shrimp allergens, federal officials said.

According to a news release from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the Lynn, Massachusetts-based company said the undeclared shrimp could pose a risk to individuals with shellfish allergies.

The recalled soup was distributed in 17 states and the District of Columbia, including Alabama, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Mississippi, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia, the FDA said. The product was also sold at Whole Foods Market locations and online.

The affected product is packaged in a 24-ounce clear plastic cup marked with lot code 1762181 and a “Use By” date of 05/27/26 on the top rim. It also carries a UPC code of 099482502065 on the back label, according to the FDA.

No illnesses have been reported.

The recall was initiated after a store discovered a single cup containing an incorrect product that included shrimp. No other soups or lot codes are affected.

Consumers who purchased the affected product are advised to return it for a full refund.
