Bazzini Recalls Barricini Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzels Due to Undeclared Wheat

What this means for you

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 (wheat), which meets the criteria for a High severity score (3) under the rubric.

Plain-English summary

Bazzini Holdings L.L.C. is recalling Barricini Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzels in 6.5 oz. plastic tubs. The recall involves 1,000 cases, or 12,000 units, of the product with Lot 1E083. The product was distributed nationwide, excluding Pacific States.

The recall is being issued because the back panel applied to some containers of the pretzels was intended for milk chocolate peanut butter cups.

Consumers with this product should stop using it and return it to the place of purchase for a refund or contact the manufacturer for instructions.
