Annie's Naturals Issues Voluntary Nationwide Allergy Alert on Undeclared Soy
in 8 fl oz. All-Natural Shiitake & Sesame Vinaigrette
Contact:
Aimee Sands
707-254-3700 ext. 103

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Napa, CA -- February 11, 2008 -- Annie's Naturals
is voluntarily recalling 686 cases of 8 fl oz. bottles of all-natural
Shiitake & Sesame Vinaigrette. The product could be mislabeled and may
contain soy sauce (contains soy and wheat) and sesame that were not declared
on the ingredient statement. People who have an allergy or severe
sensitivity to soy run the risk of serious allergic reaction if they consume
this product.

There have been no illnesses or injuries reported to date. Anyone concerned
about an illness should contact a physician immediately.

Affected product was shipped to grocery and natural food stores in
California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa,
Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Washington, between December 20, 2007 and
February 6, 2008.

Consumers can most easily identify impacted product by looking at the
product labels - the front label says Shiitake & Sesame Vinaigrette, but the
back label and ingredient statement say Low Fat Honey Mustard Vinaigrette.
Only dressings with UPC # 0-92325-33319-2 with a Best By Date of
02/20/09/1/E and 02/20/09/2/E are affected.

Organic Shiitake & Sesame Vinaigrette, 16 oz. bottles of Shiitake & Sesame
Vinaigrette, and other Annie's Naturals products are not affected by this
recall.

The problem occurred during a product changeover when back labels for Honey
Mustard Vinaigrette were commingled with back labels for all-natural
Shiitake Sesame Vinaigrette. The Honey Mustard Vinaigrette products were
unaffected.

Consumers who have purchased 8 fl oz all natural Shiitake & Sesame
Vinaigrette are urged to return the product to the place of purchase for a
full refund or may call Annie's Naturals Consumer Relations at
1.800.288.1089 to obtain a coupon for a free product.
