An ingredient change to the Hickory BBQ sauce in June of 2007 resulted in the addition of the fish protein allergen (anchovy) but the ingredient statements on the various private labels were not changed to reflect the addition of this ingredient. The problem was discovered during a label review during a recent FDA inspection.
