RITZ crackers recalled for risk of ‘serious or life-threatening’ reactions
RITZ parent company, Mondelēz Global LLC. is issuing a voluntary recall of 70 cases of RITZ peanut butter crackers sold across seven states.
The recall was initiated on Nov. 28 , after the company discovered products included in the recall may be incorrectly labeled as cheese crackers, even though the product is actually peanut butter.
"People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts may risk serious or life-threatening allergic reactions by consuming this product," the recall reads.
While the cracker cartons are correctly labeled, the individually wrapped packages may not be.
Products were sold across eight states: New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Alabama.
Affected products were sold in 27.6-ounce RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwich boxes and contain 20 individually wrapped packs of crackers.
The Universal Product Code, or UPC, is 44000 07584 2.
Best-by dates are Jan. 8, 2026 and Jan. 15, 2026. The best-by date is labeled on top of the box.
"Cartons containing only RITZ Cheese Cracker Sandwiches are not affected," the recall notes.
Only products with the UPC and best by dates noted above are included in this recall.
So far, the company says it hasn't received any reports of injury or illness related to this recall.
"Consumers who have a peanut allergy should not eat these products and should discard any product identified," the company wrote in a notice.
