Note: Mondelēz Global is not a member of the SnackSafely.com Manufacturer Partnership. As such, we don’t normally issue advisories for recalled products unless they have broad ramifications, as this one does.
Mondelēz Global LLC has announced a voluntary recall of its RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches due to the potential for undeclared peanuts. The recall was initiated after it was discovered that some individually wrapped packages within the affected cartons may be incorrectly labeled as the Cheese variety, despite containing the peanut butter product.
This recall is being conducted out of an abundance of caution, as consumption of the mislabeled product poses a risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions for individuals with a peanut allergy or severe sensitivity. The company reports that there have been no confirmed reports of injury or illness related to this issue to date.
Affected Product Details
The recall is specifically limited to approximately 70 cases of the following product, which were inadvertently shipped to a limited number of retailers:
| Product Description | Retail UPC | Best When Used By Dates |
| 27.6 oz. RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches (20 x 1.38-oz. 6-pack carton) | 44000 07584 2 | 8 JAN 26 and 15 Jan 26 (“AE” Plant Code Only) |
Distribution Area
The recalled cartons were sold in a limited number of retail stores across eight U.S. states:
- New York
- New Jersey
- Pennsylvania
- Georgia
- Arkansas
- Missouri
- Oklahoma
- Alabama
Consumer Action
Consumers who have a peanut allergy or who are sensitive to peanuts are strongly advised not to eat the product and should immediately discard any cartons matching the affected Best When Used By Dates and UPC code.
This action is not an expansion of a prior recall, and no other RITZ or Mondelēz Global LLC products are affected.
Consumers with questions can contact the company directly at 1-844-366-1171 from Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET. The recall is being conducted with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
