Product Mislabelling Prompts Limited Recall of Tomato Sauce and Allergy Alert

During a recent product audit, Seattle-based Cucina Fresca Gourmet Foods discovered a mislabelling error that had occurred and has issued an allergy alert and a limited product recall for 58 cases of shelf-stable 24_oz Cucina Fresca Smoked Tomato Sauce in glass jars.

The products that were mislabelled as Cucina Fresca Smoked Tomato Sauce actually contain Cucina Fresca Tomato Vodka Sauce, a tomato sauce that contains milk as an ingredient. Select Pacific Northwest Whole Foods and Quality Food Center locations in Oregon and Washington states (lot# 11002A and 11002B) are affected under this recall.

The company has issued an allergy alert for those who may have milk allergies. Milk allergy symptoms can include itchy eyes, throat and skin and can potentially cause anaphylaxis in persons with allergies to milk.

Video: Is China Buying US Soybeans + USDA Nov 14th Crop Report could be “Game Changing”

After a week of a U.S./China trade truce, markets/trade is skeptical that we have not seen a signed agreement nor heard much from China or seen any details. There are rumors that China is buying soybean futures & not the physical. Trust in Trump?
12 MMT of U.S. soybean purchases by China by year-end is better than 0 but we all need to give it more time and give it a chance to unfold. China did lower the tariffs on Ag and is buying U.S. wheat and sorghum.
U.S. supreme court could rule against Trumps tariffs, but the Trump administration does have a plan B.
U.S. government shutdown is now the longest in history at 38 days.
But despite a U.S. government shutdown we will be getting a USDA November crop report next Friday and it could be “game changing.” If the USDA provides a bullish surprise with lower U.S. corn and soybean yields and ending stocks that are lower than expected both corn and soybean futures will break out above their ceilings at $4.35/bu and $11.35/bu respectively.
The funds continued their selling in live and feeder cattle futures on continued fears that the Trump administration want to lower U.S. beef prices. The fundamentals have not changed, only market psychology has.
Stocks markets continue to worry about a weak U.S. job market, but you can blame ChatGPT for that. In the future, we will have a more efficient, productive and growing economy with a higher unemployment rate until we have more skilled AI workers.
After 34 new record highs in the S & P 500 and 124 new records in the NASDAQ in 2025 we are back to a correction and investor profit taking as AI valuations may have gotten too stretched near-term ahead of NVDA’s 3rd quarter earnings announcement on Nov. 19th. But this is not an AI bubble.
