What's recalled

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4, 2025 – Brazilian Taste, a Lexington, S.C. establishment, is recalling approximately 4,120 pounds of chicken and beef croquettes due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced today. The product contains sesame, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. The chicken croquettes were produced from March 4, 2025, to August 19, 2025. The beef croquettes were produced on June 2, 2025. The following products are subject to recall [view labels]: 17.63-oz. plastic bag packages containing 5 “SAINT COXINHA XL CHICKEN CROQUETTES” with “best by” dates ranging “11/04/2025” to “04/19/2026” printed on the back of the packaging. 15.8-oz. plastic bag packages containing 15 “SAINT COXINHA CHICKEN CROQUETTES” with “best by” dates ranging “11/04/2025” to “04/19/2026” printed on the back of the packaging. 13.7-oz. plastic bag packages containing 13 “SAINT COXINHA GROUND BEEF CROQUETTE RISOLE DE CARNE” with “best by” date “02/02/2026” printed on the back of the packaging.

These items were shipped to retail locations in Connecticut, Georgia, Massachusetts, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas, as well as nationwide through online sales.
