A food safety recall has been issued for a popular snack product after it was found to potentially contain an undeclared allergen that could put some consumers in serious danger.
Western Mixers Produce & Nuts, Inc., based in Ontario, California, has announced a voluntary recall of First Street brand Dark Chocolate Raisins sold in 9-ounce packages. The concern is that the product may actually contain dark chocolate peanuts that were never listed on the label.
For people with peanut allergies or severe sensitivities, consuming this product without knowing peanuts are present could trigger a serious or even life-threatening allergic reaction.
Shoppers who have purchased this item are encouraged to stop eating it immediately and check whether the product is in their home. Anyone with questions about the recall should contact the manufacturer for further guidance.
