FDA Announces Ritz Cracker Recall in 8 States Over Allergen Concerns

A select number of Ritz Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches have been recalled in eight states due to an undeclared allergen, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced Tuesday. The cracker sandwiches may have been incorrectly labeled as the cheese variety, resulting in undeclared peanuts. While this poses a serious, potentially life-threatening risk to people with peanut allergies, the FDA said there have been no reports of adverse reactions so far, and the recall was issued out of an abundance of caution.1
