A Michigan-based candy maker is recalling two of its candy bars over the potential presence of undeclared nuts that could cause a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction, the Food and Drug Administration said this week.
Zingerman’s Candy Manufactory issued the recall on Oct. 24 – just a week before Halloween.
It warned its full-size Peanut Butter Crush bars may contain undeclared cashews and its full-size Ca$hew Cow bars may have undeclared peanuts.
“People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to cashews or peanuts run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products,” the company stated.
It was not aware of any illnesses related to the recall.
The treats in question were distributed to retailers in Michigan and New York.
