# Major Recall Alert: Sesame Miso Salad with Salmon Recalled Due to Potential or Undeclared Allergen - Milk
Trader Joe’s Sesame Miso Salad with Salmon has been voluntarily recalled due to the potential presence of an undeclared milk allergen. If you’re allergic or sensitive to milk, this product could pose a serious health risk. Here’s everything you need to know about the recall, including affected states and what steps to take if you’ve purchased this product.
## Why This Recall is Important
Food allergies can be life-threatening, and undeclared allergens are a significant concern for consumer safety. In this instance, 500 units of Trader Joe’s Sesame Miso Salad with Salmon were inadvertently packaged with parmesan cheese crumbles instead of crispy onion toppings.
