by FoodRecallsDB.info

What happened

Dannon dairy drink bottles have an incorrect label that says they contain walnuts when they actually contain pecans instead. This mislabeling could be dangerous for people with specific nut allergies.

Who is at risk

People with pecan allergies or those who avoid pecans for dietary reasons are at risk, especially if they relied on the label to check for allergens.

What to do

Check your home for the affected product (UPC 36632 01421, 7.7 FL OZ bottles) purchased in the listed states. If you have it and have a pecan allergy, do not consume it. You can return it to the store for a refund or contact Dannon's consumer care line for guidance.
