NEW YORK (CNNMoney) — Truitt Brothers is recalling more than a million pounds of a Kraft Velveeta product for failing to identify soy as an ingredient, the U.S. government announced on Monday.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said that packaging firm Truitt Brothers is recalling 1.77 million pounds of Kraft Velveeta Cheesy Skillets Singles – Ultimate Cheeseburger Mac. The macaroni and cheese product contains pasta and ground beef.

Some of the labels do not mention the presence of hydrolyzed soy protein and dried soy sauce, which are allergens.

The recall applies to food with a sale date from March 2, 2014 to October 23, 2014.

The recall does not apply to other Kraft or Velveeta products, according to the government.
