Recall Insight

This FDA Food action (record #F-1034-2024) was formally reported on March 13, 2024, with the manufacturer initiating the action on December 14, 2023. It is classified under Moderate severity (Class II), with a current status of Terminated. Rong Shing Trading Ny Inc is listed as the recalling firm, operating out of Brooklyn, NY. The number of affected units is not disclosed in the agency filing, which is common for drug and food recalls where lot-level tracking supersedes unit counts.

The documented reason for this recall is: Product contains high levels of undeclared sulfites (21.91 mg/serving). Distribution data in the federal record shows the product reached: Florida and New York. Distribution scope directly affects the consumer exposure window and determines whether a recall remains regional or escalates into a nationwide advisory.

To put this record in context, PlainRecalls indexes 83,949 recalls across the FDA, CPSC and NHTSA going back to 1995. Within the same product category, the database holds 6 closely related recalls. That clustering is a signal — repeated actions in a narrow category often indicate a systemic quality-control issue, a supplier-wide contamination, or a design defect that has propagated across product lines. This recall is roughly 2 years old; older recalls can remain relevant because many units enter resale, rental, and secondary-market channels where the original warning never reaches the end user. Always cross-check the recall number against the official agency page before relying on any summary.
