In a statement Wednesday, GHSW LLC said it had decided on a recall amid concerns that product labels failed to declare soy as a sub-ingredient of the mayonnaise used in the products. Consumers allergic to soy face the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions if they ate the products. However, no illnesses or injuries were reported.

The products were sold at two Whole Foods Markets 365 in Texas and at Whole Foods Markets in Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. The products include two varieties of crudite bowls sold at Whole Foods Markets under its own brand, one with asparagus and bell peppers, the other with jicama and mini peppers. They also include store-branded classic potato salad, classic tuna salad wrap, smoked mozzarella pasta salad, traditional egg salad yellowfin tuna salad and broccoli crunch sold at Whole Foods Markets 365 in Houston and Cedar Park, Texas.

Whole Foods started out in Austin in 1980. It has since grown to 500 stores in North America and the United Kingdom.
