F-Bombs Peanut Butter Truffles recalled for undeclared food dyes

Fox Confections LLC is recalling F-Bombs Peanut Butter Truffles because they contain undeclared FD&C Yellow #5 and Yellow #6. Consumers with sensitivities to these dyes should not consume the product.

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 II recall for undeclared food additives with no reported illnesses or injuries. FD&C Yellow #5 and #6 are approved food dyes, making this primarily a labeling issue rather than a safety issue with the ingredient itself.
