Power Plate Meals Frozen Meatloaf Recall 2026 – Undeclared Soy Allergen
Advertisement
Power Plate Meals, LLC, a West Fargo, North Dakota establishment, is recalling approximately 5,795 pounds of frozen meatloaf with garlic mashed potatoes products due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced the recall on June 18, 2026. The affected products contain soy, a known allergen, which was not declared on the product label, posing a serious risk to individuals with soy allergies or sensitivities.
What Products Are Being Recalled?
The following frozen meal product is subject to this recall:
- Product: ‘POWER PLATE MEALS MEATLOAF WITH GARLIC MASHED POTATOES’
- Package: 13.3-oz. vacuum sealed plastic tray packages
- ‘USE BY’ dates: Between 6/25/26 and 6/10/27
- Production dates: June 25, 2025, to June 10, 2026
- Establishment number: ‘EST. 217SEND’ inside the USDA mark of inspection
Consumers should check their freezers for any packages matching this description and take immediate action.
Why Was This Recall Issued?
The recall was initiated after a state inspector notified FSIS that the final product label did not include soy in the ingredients list. Soy is one of the major food allergens recognized by the U.S. Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act. When a product contains soy but fails to declare it on the label, it constitutes both misbranding and a failure to warn consumers who may have life-threatening allergies to soy or soy-derived ingredients.

- Minnesota

The recalled products were shipped to distributors operating within these states. Individuals who have purchased ‘POWER PLATE MEALS MEATLOAF WITH GARLIC MASHED POTATOES’ with ‘USE BY’ dates between 6/25/26 and 6/10/27 are urged to act immediately. Those with soy allergies or sensitivities are at the greatest risk of adverse health effects if the product is consumed.
