Chocolate pretzel candy recalled because contains statement omits peanut allergen
J2C Hawaii is recalling Tiki Bar Candy Dark Chocolatey Peanut Butter & Pretzel because the ingredients list declares peanut but the Contains statement does not.
The agency’s classification
FDA (Food): Class II
Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.
This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
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: Rubric level 3 explicitly covers allergen mislabelling on common allergens, and peanut is omitted from the Contains statement that allergy sufferers rely on.
