Shawnee Mills All-Purpose Flour is being pulled from shelves across two different states due to undeclared allergens. The affected products may potentially contain milk and eggs but did not contain a label letting customers know. The US Food and Drug Administration reported the recall, which was issued voluntarily by Shawnee Milling Company. Read on for more details, including exactly which products the recall includes and what to do if you’ve purchased them.

Shawnee Mills All-Purpose Flour Recall

According to the FDA, the following Shawnee Mills bags of flour sold in Ohio and New York may contain milks and/or eggs:

    Shawnee Mills 5lb Food Club All-Purpose Flour with Best if Used By date: 03/07/2025

The Best if Used By date can be found on the of the front panel of the bag. Check your pantry ASAP to see if your flour is included in this recall, especially if anyone in your home has a milk or egg allergy.

Potential Undeclared Allergens

The recall was initiated by Shawnee Milling Company after it was discovered that an equipment breakdown during production could have allowed allergen cross-contact. The allergens in question are milk and eggs, two common allergens that often have "life threatening allergic reactions" according to the company's announcement. Though no illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this recall, it's better to be safe than to be sorry.

What To Do If You've Purchased One Of The Recalled Items

Consumers who have purchased 5 lb. Food Club All Purpose Flour Best if Used by 03/07/2025 are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company at 1-800-654-2600 8 AM – 5 PM CST Monday through Friday.
