Conagra Brands Inc. has announced a recall of about 700,125 pounds of spaghetti and meatball products due to misbranding and undeclared allergens, according to a press release from the U.S. Department of Agriculture issued Saturday. The products contain milk, a known allergen, which is not declared on labels, in the items, which were produced on Jan. 5 and Jan. 12.
