Published by RawNews1st
Several repackaged M&M’s products have been recalled over undeclared allergens, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said in an online enforcement report.
Minnesota-based Beacon Promotions Inc. initiated the recall on Jan. 26, and the FDA classified it as a Class II recall on Feb. 4, meaning exposure to the products “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
The recalled products contain undeclared milk, soy and peanut, posing a risk to anyone with allergies to those ingredients, the FDA said.
These are not standard retail packages of M&M’s you would typically find on a store shelf. The recall covers several branded, repackaged M&M’s products labeled with various company and organization names. The recalled items include:
According to the FDA, the recalled products were distributed to 20 states:
- Alabama
- Arizona
- California
- Florida
- Iowa
- Kansas
- Kentucky
- Massachusetts
- Maryland
- Minnesota
- North Carolina
- New York
- Ohio
- Pennsylvania
- South Dakota
- Tennessee
- Texas
- Virginia
- Washington
- Wisconsin
