Avoid creating airborne root dust and discontinue handling if irritation occurs. The supplier notes processing in a facility that may also contain tree nuts, wheat, and sesame. Keep away from food, children, and pets.

Natural variation

Natural beige-to-brown color, root-piece size, mild aroma, and texture may vary by harvest, origin, and batch.
