Here Are All Of The Snacks Included So Far In The Peanut-Contaminated Flour Recall

http://ift.tt/28CxuYt

Severe allergies to peanuts are terrifyingly common, which is why products get recalled when they could have just tiny amounts of the legume. After a commercial supplier recalled a batch of flour that may contain some peanut protein, snack-makers are recalling products made with the affected flour. Those snacks include major brands like Keebler, Famous Amos, Rold Gold, Mother’s, Murray, and Special K.

Frito-Lay recalled its pretzels in various shapes, and its snack mixes and variety packs that include affected pretzels. You can identify the snacks using their dates and production codes.

  • Rold Gold Tiny Twists – 1 oz. , 2 oz., 16 oz. and 20½ oz.
  • Rold Gold Thins – 4 oz. and 16 oz.
  • Rold Gold Sticks – 16 oz.
  • Rold Gold Honey Wheat Braided – 10 oz.

Affected pretzels will have a “guaranteed fresh” date between June 28, 2016 and August 23, 2016. Look for a production code below that date with “32” as the second and third digits, as in x32xxxxxx.

Multi-packs with some Rold Gold products are more complicated to screen, since every freshness date is different, but here’s what to look for:

  • 20 count Baked & Popped Mix — “use by” dates ranging from May 31 – August 9, 2016
  • 20 count SunChips & Rold Gold Mix — “use by” dates ranging from June 14 – August 9, 2016
  • 32 count Fun Times Mix — “use by” dates ranging from May 31 – August 9, 2016
  • 30 count Baked & Popped Variety Pack — “use by” dates ranging from June 14 – August 9, 2016
  • 30 count Home Town Favorite Variety Pack — “use by” dates ranging from May 31 – July 26, 2016
