Kellogg Recalls Snacks, Cookies Over Peanut Residue

Kellogg Company of Battle Creek, MI, announced Monday that it is voluntarily recalling certain varieties and limited dates of production of Mother’s, Keebler, Kellogg’s Special K brownies, Murray and Famous Amos snacks and cookies because they may contain undeclared peanut residue.

Kellogg’s initiated the recall after its supplier, Grain Craft, recalled wheat flour that has the potential to contain low levels of peanut residue.

While consumers with severe peanut allergies should avoid the recalled products, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has stated that the amount of peanut exposure from the flour is low and not expected to cause adverse health effects in the vast majority of peanut allergic consumers. Kellogg’s stated that it has received no reports of related illness to date and is taking this action out of an abundance of caution.

The list of products distributed throughout the United States and Puerto Rico is HERE

Kellogg’s is asking that people who purchased affected product discard it and contact the company for a full refund. Consumers can call 800-962-1413, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. EDT or find company contact information HERE.
