MDA Issues Consumer Advisory for TeaSource Brand
Roasted Chestnut Tea
Almonds undeclared on label
ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Minnesota Department of Agriculture
(MDA) is notifying consumers of an allergy alert for an undeclared allergen in
TeaSource brand Roasted Chestnut Tea. The label on the tea bag did not declare
tree nuts (almonds) as an ingredient. The Roasted Chestnut Tea was produced and
packaged by TeaSource of Roseville, Minnesota. The product is sold as loose tea
in 2-ounce, 4-ounce, and 1-pound bags. TeaSource has voluntarily recalled this
product.
State officials are not aware of any illnesses associated
with these products, but people who have sensitivity to tree nuts should be
aware of the inclusion of this ingredient in the tea blend. These products were
produced and distributed through July 24, 2018. The label has since been
corrected.
Consumers with allergen concerns who purchased TeaSource
brand Roasted Chestnut Tea are advised to discard the product.
