Monroeville Giant Eagle recalls bread

Giant Eagle officials have issued a voluntary recall of multi-grain sourdough bread sold at its Monroeville store on Monroeville Boulevard.

A limited amount of bread, sold at the store’s bakery, was incorrectly labeled as “multi-grain Tuscany,” resulting in an undeclared sesame allergen being potentially present. It was discovered during a routine inventory check, and all affected loaves of bread were taken off store shelves.

Those with an allergy or severe sensitivity to sesame could experience a serious allergic reaction if they consume it.
