Due to Labeling Error, there is a Voluntary Recall on Certain RITZ Cracker Sandwiches

On July 8, the FDA announced that there is a voluntary recall on certain RITZ Cracker Sandwiches by Mondelēz Global LLC, the company who owns RITZ. 

The recall covers four carton sizes of RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches (8-pack, 20-pack, and 40-pack cartons of RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches, as well as the 20-pack RITZ Filled Cracker Sandwich Variety Pack carton). These were manufactured in the United States and sold nationwide.

According to the FDA, “The affected cartons include individually wrapped packs that may be incorrectly labeled as Cheese variety even though the product may be a Peanut Butter variety. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts may risk serious or life-threatening allergic reactions by consuming this product. All outer cartons affected are labeled correctly and provide an allergen advisory statement indicating that the product ‘contains peanuts.’”
