Check your freezer.
Target has issued a nationwide recall for a popular frozen item after shrimp was found in products that didn’t list shellfish on the label.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says the undeclared allergen could cause serious reactions in people with shellfish allergies.
What’s Being Recalled
The recall affects Good & Gather™ Burrito Bowl Blend, Southwest-Style sold in 12-ounce bags.
The UPC number is 085239931356, and the best-by date is 08/24/2026.
The product can also be identified by the following lot codes: L5055-1, L5055-2, L5055-3, L5055-4, L5055-5, and L5055-6.
Over 57,000 Bags Sold
According to the FDA, approximately 57,240 bags were distributed and sold across all 50 states since April 17, 2025.
Why It’s a Problem
Shrimp (a major allergen) was found in some bags but not listed on the ingredient label.
People with shellfish allergies could have a severe reaction if they eat the product.
The issue came to light after three consumer complaints; no illnesses were reported at the time of the notice.
How to Check Your Freezer
Look for the Good & Gather Southwest-Style Burrito Bowl Blend with the UPC, date, and lot codes above.
If you have it, don’t eat it. Throw it away or return it to Target for a refund.
Target has posted the recall on its help site and is directing customers to the FDA notice for full details.
What to Do If You’re Allergic
Shellfish allergies can cause symptoms ranging from hives and swelling to anaphylaxis.
Call 911 if someone has trouble breathing, throat tightness, dizziness/fainting, or severe gastrointestinal symptoms after eating the recalled product.

Why This Recall Matters
Undeclared allergens are one of the most common—and dangerous—reasons for food recalls.
Even a small amount of shrimp can trigger a life-threatening reaction for someone with a shellfish allergy, which is why officials urge quick checks of home freezers.
