Taylor Farms has issued a recall<\/a> of a popular salad<\/a> kit sold at H-E-B stores across Texas over concerns it may contain undeclared allergens that could cause serious reactions in some consumers.<\/p>\n

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)<\/a>, the recall was announced on October 27, 2026, and involves H-E-B Backyard BBQ Chop Salad kits that may contain soy and tree nuts, specifically almonds, without those ingredients being declared on the packaging.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, Taylor Farms confirmed that no adverse reactions had been reported as of its October 27 announcement.<\/p>\n

Customers can identify the recalled salad using the following details:<\/p>\n

Product: H-E-B Backyard BBQ Chop Salad Kit<\/p>\n

Package size: 13.4 ounces<\/p>\n

Best If Used By: October 30, 2026<\/p>\n

Distribution: H-E-B stores in Texas<\/p>\n

Delish reported<\/a> that no other Taylor Farms products were included in the recall.<\/p>\n

With the October 30 expiration date approaching, shoppers who purchased the salad recently should check their refrigerators before preparing their next meal.<\/p>\n

Why are the salads being recalled?<\/p>\n

The salad is being recalled because of undeclared soy and almonds.<\/p>\n

Both ingredients are classified as major food allergens in the United States. For most people, eating them isn’t a problem. However, someone with a food allergy could experience a serious reaction, even when consuming a relatively small amount.<\/p>\n

Symptoms can include itching, hives, stomach pain, vomiting, and swelling around the mouth or throat.<\/p>\n

More severe reactions can cause breathing difficulties or anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical treatment.<\/p>\n

That’s what makes undeclared allergens particularly concerning. Someone who regularly checks food labels might unknowingly consume an ingredient they’ve spent years avoiding.<\/p>\n

I’ve become far more careful about reading food labels over the years, mostly because of my own efforts to improve my health. For families managing serious allergies, though, checking those ingredients is an everyday necessity.<\/p>\n

What should you do if you purchased the recalled salad?<\/p>\n

Consumers who purchased the affected H-E-B Backyard BBQ Chop Salad Kit should not eat it.<\/p>\n

Instead, the FDA advises<\/a> customers to dispose of the product or return it to the store for a full refund.<\/p>\n

Don’t assume the salad is safe simply because it looks fresh, smells normal, or hasn’t reached its best-by date. Undeclared allergens cannot be identified through appearance or smell.<\/p>\n

Anyone who has eaten the product and experiences symptoms of a severe allergic reaction, including difficulty breathing or throat swelling, should seek emergency medical attention immediately.<\/p>\n

For additional information about the recall, customers can contact Taylor Farms directly at 855-455-0098.<\/p>\n

Consumers can also review the official FDA recall notice<\/a>, which includes photographs of the affected packaging to help shoppers identify the product.<\/p>\n
