Nuts & Grain Bread Recalled for Undeclared Tree Nut Cross Contamination

Signature Select Nuts & Grain Bread may contain undeclared tree nuts from potential cross contamination. The product is distributed in Western U.S. states and poses a risk to consumers with tree nut allergies.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class III recall involving potential undeclared tree nuts (common allergens) from cross contamination, but no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is theoretical—only the risk of cross-exposure is documented, not confirmed contamination.

Plain-English summary

Albertsons Companies LLC is recalling Signature Select Nuts & Grain Bread (20 oz / 680 g) due to the potential for undeclared tree nuts from cross contamination.

The product is labeled as containing walnuts and hazelnuts. However, the bread may have been cross-contaminated with additional tree nuts including almonds and cashews that are not declared on the label. For consumers with tree nut allergies, consuming this product could trigger an allergic reaction.

The recall affects approximately 1,976,142 units distributed in Alaska, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. No international distribution has been identified. Expiration dates on the recalled units include all sell-through dates up to and including April 18.
