NatureMills US Inc., a food manufacturer based in Prosper, Texas, has issued a widespread voluntary recall affecting a broad range of their popular Indian food products due to undeclared allergens: wheat, milk, and sesame. The announcement was posted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a public safety alert.
What’s Being Recalled?
The recall spans 18 product categories including rice mixes, soups, spice powders, porridge mix, papads, and vadam snacks. The affected products were sold nationwide between December 1, 2023, and May 10, 2025 via the official NatureMills website (www.naturemills.com).
Here are the key recalled items:
- Rice Mixes: Idly Chilli, Sesame, Dal Garlic, Moringa, Curry Leaf, Vallarai, Horsegram
- Soups: Wonderberry, Moringa Leaf, Avarampoo, Horsegram
- Spice Mixes: Traditional Sambar, Traditional Rasam
- Porridge: Black Kavuni
- Snacks: Garlic Vadam, Tomato Vadam, Rice Papad
Why the Recall?
An internal audit revealed labeling omissions for allergens in these products, a critical violation for food safety. While no illnesses have been reported yet, individuals allergic to wheat, milk, or sesame are at serious risk of life-threatening reactions if they consume these items unknowingly.
The issue is being attributed to a packaging oversight, and the company claims it has since implemented corrective measures to prevent further incidents.
Affected Batches and Expiry
The recall spans dozens of batch codes, with best-by dates ranging from October 2025 to August 2026. Specific batch details and UPC codes are listed on the FDA’s recall page or can be viewed directly at www.naturemills.com/pages/recall.

No Reported Illnesses – Yet
Although there are no known allergic reactions at this time, the FDA and NatureMills stress the importance of early action to prevent any potential harm. Given the wide distribution and the popularity of these products in Indian and international households, the recall is significant in scale and urgency.
A Wake-Up Call on Food Labeling
This recall underscores the critical importance of allergen labeling, especially in diverse food products where ingredients like sesame, milk, or wheat may be more common in traditional recipes. The FDA has stepped up enforcement on allergen disclosures in recent years, and recalls like this are an important part of public safety transparency.
