The affected products were available for purchase at Whole Foods Market stores across the country between Sept. 8, 2023 and Dec. 22, 2023. No other lots than the one mentioned were found to be affected, said the FDA, adding that the affected products have also been removed from store shelves.

Whole Food fillet recalls: No illnesses reported so far

While no illnesses have been reported to date, said the FDA, the agency warned those with soy allergies and sensitivities to steer clear of the products to avoid the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions.

Consumers who have already purchased the products should not consume the product and should either dispose of it or take it back to a Whole Foods store with a valid receipt for a full refund.
