McCain Foods USA has expanded its voluntarily recall of frozen onion rings to include two additional private label retail branded products due to a packaging omission in which milk is not declared as one of the ingredients. Consumers who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they eat these products.
