What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves allergen mislabeling on a common allergen (milk), which corresponds to a severity score of 3 (High) per the rubric.

Plain-English summary

American Importing Co, Inc is recalling Market Pantry Sweet & Salty Mix, a 3 oz (85g) snack mix. The recall is due to the product containing Butter Toffee Peanuts instead of the Honey Roasted Peanuts listed on the label.

Butter Toffee Peanuts contain a very small amount of butter (0.5% to 1.0%), which is a milk allergen. The product label states "CONTAINS PEANUTS AND SOY" and "May contain tree nuts, milk, wheat and eggs," but the specific ingredient substitution introduces a milk allergen not explicitly declared as a primary ingredient in the context of the mislabeled component.

The recall involves 2,869 cases (24 cups per case) distributed to Target Corporation, which has 52 distribution locations in AL, AZ, CA, CO, GA, IL, IN, IA, KS, MI, MN, NY, NC, OH, OR, PA, SC, TX, VA, and WI. Affected lot codes include 074X348, 092X348, 105X348, 106X348, 107X348, 108X348, 109X348, 112X348, 120X348, 121X348, and 122X348. Consumers with a milk allergy should avoid consuming the product.
