  • Frederik's Dark Chocolate Almonds, sold at Meijer stores, have been recalled due to the potential presence of undeclared cashews, posing a risk to individuals with cashew allergies.
  • The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) elevated the recall to a Class II, indicating that consumption may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences.
  • The recall affects specific black stand-up pouches and multi-pack boxes of the dark chocolate almonds, with various sell-by dates, sold across six US states.
  • No illnesses have been reported to date, but customers are advised to return the affected products to Meijer for a full refund.
