The FDA and The Salsa Texan are recalling all regular and burrito-sized packages of The Salsa Texan Coconut Flour Tortillas and Blended Flour Tortillas.  These products contain undeclared wheat and milk.  Those with an allergy or sensitivity to wheat or milk including a gluten sensitivity or celiac disease could develop a serious or life-threatening reaction should they ingest these products.  These products were sold in various Farmer’s Markets in Texas.  Beware since some of these tortillas may be sold in clear plastic packages that aren’t even labeled “The Salsa Texas.”  Those with wheat and milk allergies as well as gluten allergies and celiac disease should not consume these tortillas but return them to the Farmer’s Markets where they were purchased.  For more information, contact The Salsa Texan at 1-214-850-9498.
