More than 1,700 pounds of chicken Caesar salad products sold at Cumberland Farms stores in Maine and throughout New England are being recalled due to misbranding.

Missa Bay LLC, a New Jersey-based business, makes the 9.95 ounce plastic salad bowls that contain chicken Caesar salad with romaine lettuce, roasted chicken, parmesan cheese, bacon, croutons and creamy Caesar dressing.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the products are labeled gluten-free. However, the croutons are made with wheat, which means they contain gluten. The wheat was not published on the product label.

The product was shipped to Cumberland Farms stores throughout New England, as well as New York state. The USDA said the health risk is low.

The salads have a must-use date of Aug. 16.
