From the FDA letter, it looks like they want Bimbo to move the allergens from ingredients to a possible cross-contamination statement. Seems pretty straightforward.
We also offer the following comments:
Separate from the food allergen labeling requirements of the Act, firms may voluntarily place other information or statements on the labels of food products to disclose information about allergens to consumers. For example, firms may choose to voluntarily place allergen advisory statements on products to alert consumers to the possible presence of major food allergens due to cross-contact. Any allergen advisory statement must be truthful and not misleading.

On the other hand, Bimbo is misspelling Khorasan!
The ingredient list declares “Kamut®” which is not part of the common or usual name of Khorasan wheat because it is a brand name. Furthermore, Khorasan is misspelled as “Khorsan.”
