DOH ALERTS PUBLIC ABOUT RECALL OF SUN NOODLE SURA TANMEN HOT AND SOUR FLAVOR PREMIUM JAPANESE NOODLES & SOUP BASE

26-092

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

August 6, 2026

HONOLULU — The Hawai‘i Department of Health (DOH) Food and Drug Branch (FDB) is alerting residents to a recall issued by Sun Noodle for its Sura Tanmen Hot and Sour Flavor Premium Japanese Noodles & Soup Base. The recall was issued due to inadvertently packing a soba sauce soup base, which contains fish, into the Sura Tanmen package. Fish is a known allergen, and the label does not indicate the presence of fish.

The recalled product was distributed exclusively in Hawai‘i to Don Quijote, Times Supermarket, H Mart, Marukai Wholesale Mart, Nijiya Market and other local grocers and distributors. The DOH FDB is following up with local stores to ensure that the recalled product is no longer available for sale.

The recalled product information is as follows:

People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to fish may run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume or are exposed to the product. Symptoms of an allergic reaction to fish may include runny nose, skin reactions such as hives or swelling, itching or tingling in or around the mouth and throat, digestive issues such as diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea, and/or vomiting, and/or signs of asthma such as coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, or shortness of breath.

Allergies to fish can also cause anaphylaxis, a reaction that narrows the airway and can block breathing. Symptoms of anaphylaxis include swelling or tightness of the throat, a severe drop in blood pressure, increased heart rate, chest pain or tightness, rapid pulse, shock, severe difficulty breathing, trouble swallowing, pale blue skin color, and/or dizziness or fainting.

A consumer with an allergy or severe sensitivity to fish should notify their healthcare provider if they were exposed to the recalled product or have consumed the product. If a consumer shows signs of anaphylaxis, immediately administer an epinephrine autoinjector (e.g., EpiPen, Auvi-Q, etc.) and call 911, as anaphylaxis is a medical emergency that requires immediate care.

To date, there have been no reports of illness or adverse events attributed to the recalled product. The FDB advises consumers to verify if they purchased the recalled product by comparing the UPC and lot codes listed above with the markings on the label. Consumers should neither open nor eat the recalled products if anyone in the household has a fish allergy, to prevent exposure and potential symptoms. Consumers may return the recalled product to the place of purchase for a full refund and may contact Sun Noodle at 808-841-5808 Monday through Saturday between 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. HST or email [email protected] with additional questions.
