DiLuigi Foods discovered lot numbers that start with 16B21 and 16C21 of DiLuigi Smashables The Original Style Smashburger don’t have milk listed among the allergens on the label. While not a problem for most people, those with food allergies check ingredient listings as if their health depended on it — because it does.
