The Ohio Department of Health issued notifications for two separate food recalls on Oct. 14.

The product code and enjoy-by-date are in the upper right hand corner of the package; the UPC code is on the back of the package, below the barcode.
Additionally, New Frontier Foods Inc. of Burlingame, Calif., is voluntarily recalling six days of production of “Ocean’s Halo Gluten Free Seaweed Chips,” which are produced at a third party manufacturer, because of an undeclared allergen – wheat.

To date, the company has not received any reports of illness that may be associated with gluten.
