Nearly 2,000 cases of Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice recalled

Uncle Ben's Ready RiceMars Food North America is voluntarily recalling two Lot Codes of Uncle Ben’s Ready Rice Garden Vegetable with Peas, Carrots & Corn pouch product, representing less than 2,000 cases. Some pouches in these lot codes were filled with a different product that contains barley, a non-wheat source of gluten, which is not declared on the product packaging.

This action relates only to UNCLE BEN’S® READY RICE® Garden Vegetable with Peas, Carrots & Corn pouch products with a “Best Before Date 06/15 MADE IN CANADA” with either of these Lot Codes printed on the package:

  • 422GBBFP1L OR 422GBBFP1R
  • 423AABFP1L OR 423AABFP1R

No other Lot Codes, or any other UNCLE BEN’S® Brand products, are involved in this action. No Mars Foodservices products are involved in this action.

Only these specific lot codes are impacted. The product should be returned to where it was purchased.
