Teddy Grahams sold in foodservice channels recalled for potential peanut residue

Mondelēz Global LLC of East Hanover, NJ, has announced a nationwide voluntary recall in the United States of Nabisco brand Honey Maid Teddy Grahams Cinnamon Cubs Graham Snacks sold only in foodservice channels (not in supermarkets).

This recall is being conducted following notification of a wheat flour recall by Grain Craft, a third-party flour supplier to one of Mondelēz’s external manufacturers, because of the potential presence of undeclared low levels of peanut residue in the flour.

While consumers with severe peanut allergies should avoid the recalled product, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 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.

According to the company, it has received no reports of related illness to date and is taking this action as a precaution.

The following foodservice product is being recalled:

Description	Retail UPC	Best When Used By Dates
Honey Maid Teddy Grahams Cinnamon Cubs Graham Snacks, 0.5 oz	0 19320 01676 9	11 Oct 16 – 12 Oct 16 (top of package)

This recall is limited exclusively to the Honey Maid Teddy Grahams Cinnamon Cubs Graham Snacks manufactured and sold in the U.S. through foodservice channels. No other Honey Maid, Teddy Grahams or any other Mondelēz International product is included in this recall, and the recall does not involve any product purchased in retail channels (supermarkets, etc.).

Affected consumers who have this product should not eat it and should discard any recalled products they may have. Consumers can contact the company at 1-877-807-5633, 24 hours a day, to get more information about the recall, and consumer relations specialists are available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
