Company Announcement
Prime Food Processing LLC of Brooklyn, NY is voluntarily recalling 2,243 cases of two dessert bun varieties because the packaging does not declare milk in the “Contains” allergen statement as required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The milk in these products is derived from unsalted butter listed in the ingredient statement. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk risk a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.
The recalled products were distributed to Asian grocery stores between April 2, 2025 and November 14, 2025 in the following states:
AL, AZ, CA, CO, CT, FL, GA, HI, IL, IN, KS, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, NC, NE, NJ, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WI

The issue was identified during an internal product review. The recall was initiated after it was discovered that packaging did not declare milk in the allergen statement. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company’s label review process.
Consumers who purchased these products should return them to the place of purchase with the uneaten buns and packaging for a full refund.
