The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published a recall notice affecting several products sold as gluten-free by GF Blends Inc., after testing found wheat gluten in a plantain flour ingredient supplied by a third party. The notice, dated September 18, 2026, is available on the FDA’s official recalls page.
What’s being recalled
The recall covers specific lots of two product lines sold under GF Blends’ brands:
- Truly AIP All Purpose Flour (15.3 oz) — lots 260225 (best by 2-25-28) and 260610 (best by 6-10-28)
- Truly AIP Bread Mix (14 oz) — lots 260417 (best by 4-17-28) and 260617 (best by 12-17-27)
- EAT G.A.N.G.S.T.E.R. Flat Bread Pizza Mix (163g and 3.98 lb) — lot 260327 (best by 9-27-27 and 7-27-27) and (163g) lot 260803 (best by 2-03-28)
According to the FDA notice, the issue traces back to a plantain flour ingredient supplied by PMF Global, which tested positive for gluten through a qualitative method during the company’s own post-production quality checks — above the 20 ppm threshold the FDA requires for a “gluten-free” claim.
Where the products were sold
The affected lots were distributed nationwide through the brands’ own websites, eatgangster.com and trulyaip.com, as well as through Amazon.com and other retail and online customers, up until September 12, 2026, when GF Blends says it stopped shipping product made with the implicated ingredient.
What consumers should do
The FDA notice specifically warns that people with celiac disease or severe gluten intolerance who consume these products “run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction.” Anyone who has purchased the affected lots is advised not to eat them and to either discard the product or contact GF Blends for a full refund, by phone at 509-375-0909 or by email at recall@gfblends.com.
No illnesses had been reported in connection with the recall at the time the FDA notice was published. As always, we recommend checking the lot number and best-by date on any product from these lines against the ones listed above before consuming it, since not every unit on shelves is necessarily affected.
This isn’t the first time undeclared gluten has slipped into products marketed as safe: we previously covered a similar case involving undeclared gluten found in gummy candies. It also comes as the FDA is separately working on clearer gluten-labeling rules for packaged foods, which could make recalls like this one less common going forward.
