This voluntary recall is limited to the pasta sauces with these specific production codes, which were distributed nationwide. No other production codes/dates, sizes or varieties of RAGÚ® pasta sauces are affected by this recall. Please note again:  only the Codes listed above are impacted by this recall.

These sauces were produced between June 4-8 and Mizkan America believes that the majority of this production run is in its control.  However, some cases of the sauces listed above were shipped to customers recently and these cases/products are subject to this voluntary recall.  Again, retailers that received shipments of the impacted products have been notified. Mizkan is working together with these retail partners to ensure that these RAGÚ® varieties with the specified case/cap codes are removed from grocers nationwide.

Consumers who have purchased the recalled RAGÚ® sauces with the outlined cap codes should call our Customer-Service Hotline to receive a replacement.  Our Customer-Service Hotline can be reached at 800-328-7248.  Our Customer-Service Team is available to take your call Monday – Friday from 7:30 am – 5:00 pm CST.  Mizkan America will provide a replacement coupon to reporting consumers and also may make arrangements to retrieve the product for further examination.
