FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — May 19, 2015 — Brooklyn, NY — A&S FOOD TRADING INC at 4425B 1ST AVE, BROOKLYN, NEW YORK 11232 is recalling HUA ZHI YING BRAND GOURD CANDY because it contains undeclared sulfites.

The recalled HUA ZHI YING BRAND GOURD CANDY is sold in a 250G un-coded, clear plastic package and was distributed in New York State. It is a product of China.
