GF Blends recalls gluten-free products flour, bread mix, pizza mix RECALLS & ALERTS Gluten-free mixes, flour recalled. See the affected products Julia GomezUSA TODAY Sept. 21, 2026, 8:56 a.m. ET Bread and pizza mixes, as well as all-purpose flour labeled as gluten-free, were recalled due to undeclared wheat gluten, according to the Food and Drug Administration. GF Blends recalled the gluten-free flour and mixes sold nationwide through online retailers, a news release on the FDA website stated. The products were made with plantain flour from PMF Global. The flour was labeled and certified as gluten-free, but third-party testing found that the flour and products manufactured with it contained gluten. The FDA allows products with less than 20 parts per million of gluten to be labeled gluten-free, according to the Celiac Disease Foundation. However, per the news release, the levels of gluten in the bread mix exceeded the FDA's limit for gluten-free labeling. "People who have celiac disease or a severe gluten intolerance run the risk of adverse health effects or allergic reactions if they consume these products," the news release stated. No adverse reactions related to the recalled products have been reported. Here's what to know. What gluten-free products were recalled?

TB testing can be done on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday during the normal clinic hours of Monday - Friday : 8am - 4:30pm Two-step TB skin testing may be performed within 7-21 days after the reading of the first TB test. A positive TB test does not necessarily mean a person has active TB. Any individual who has a positive TB test will meet with one of our clinic’s trained professionals to review the results, and advise them of what their next step should be. Learn More + Contact Us + What is Latent TB Infection? Persons with latent TB infection do not feel sick and do not have any symptoms. They are infected with M. tuberculosis, but do not have TB disease. The only sign of TB infection is a positive reaction to the tuberculin skin test or TB blood test. Persons with latent TB infection are not infectious and cannot spread TB infection to others. Overall, without treatment, about 5 to 10% of infected persons will develop TB disease at some time in their lives. About half of those people who develop TB will do so within the first two years of infection. For persons whose immune systems are weak, especially those with HIV infection, the risk of developing TB disease is considerably higher than for persons with normal immune systems. Of special concern are persons infected by someone with extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR TB) who later develop TB disease; these persons will have XDR TB, not regular TB disease.
