A series of voluntary recalls affecting popular household brands and pet food products were announced last week, prompting renewed calls for consumers to check their pantries and freezers.
While no illnesses or injuries have been reported in any of the three cases, companies say they are acting “out of an abundance of caution.”
Mondelēz Global LLC issued a recall for 70 cases of RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches distributed to retailers in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Alabama.
The affected products—limited to a single SKU and two code dates previously involved in a July recall—may contain peanut butter crackers in packages incorrectly labeled as the cheese variety. Because peanuts are a major food allergen, the error could lead to serious or life-threatening reactions in people with peanut allergies.
All outer cartons are correctly labeled with a “contains peanuts” advisory, the company said. Only the 27.6 oz., 20-count carton with plant code “AE” and Best When Used By dates 8 JAN 26 and 15 JAN 26 is included.
Mondelēz said the mix-up occurred when 70 cases were inadvertently shipped to retailers. No illnesses have been reported, and corrective actions are underway. Consumers with a peanut allergy are urged not to eat the product and may contact the company at 1-844-366-1171.
Plastic contamination
Fromm Family Foods has announced a recall of 300 cases of Bonnihill Farms BeefiBowls Beef Recipe frozen dog food after receiving complaints of plastic pieces in the product.
The recall includes 16 oz. chubs with Best By date 12/25/2026 and lot code B01, distributed through neighborhood pet stores across Illinois, Wisconsin, Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Louisiana, California, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Ontario, Canada.
While no injuries have been reported, dogs that ingest plastic may suffer from vomiting, lethargy, loss of appetite, stomach discomfort, or more serious intestinal obstruction. The company has identified the source of the issue and implemented additional safety measures beyond its current protocols.
Consumers should stop feeding the product to pets and return it to their retailer. Questions can be directed to 1-800-325-6331 or info@frommfamily.com.
