WASHINGTON, May 7 (UPI) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced the voluntary recall of Blount-brand New England clam chowder because of a labeling error.
The FDA said Blount Fine Foods of Fall River, Maine, initiated the recall because the product might contain undeclared shrimp, posing a health risk for people allergic to that ingredient.
Being recalled are 20-ounce dark blue plastic cups with a film seal and plastic lid. The lot number 0424086D and a sell by date of "6/23/2008" are printed on the bottom of the cup.
Blount New England Clam Chowder was distributed across Massachusetts and Maine.
Consumers can return the product for a refund or contact the company at 800-274-2526.

This undated NASA image shows two galaxies that are slowly colliding and possibly, in hundreds of millions of years, only one galaxy will remain. Although it is likely that no stars in the two galaxies will directly collide, the gas, dust and ambient magnetic fields do interact directly. These galaxies, part of the vast Hydra-Centaurus supercluster of galaxies, spans over 100 thousand light-years across and is located about 100 million light-years away.
