Problem discovered during a routine label check

Conagra Brands recalled about 2 million pounds of P.F. Chang’s frozen meals that failed to note milk in the ingredients, a problem the company discovered during a routine label verification, the USDA announced.

The allergen is in the brand’s chicken pad thai and chicken fried rice entrees shipped to stores nationwide. The recalled misbranded products were made between Oct. 1, 2018, and April 11, 2019, with best by dates of Sept. 26, 2019, through April 5, 2020.

The products have the establishment No. P115 on the panel above the nutritional statement. The recall doesn’t affect any product sold at P.F. Chang’s restaurants.

There were no confirmed reports of adverse reactions at the time of the recall announcement.
