Though no adverse reactions have been reported as of Friday, those who have allergies to pecans “run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products,” per a recall notice posted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) website.
The recall came after “four pecan-filled kringles were incorrectly labeled as Almond Kringle and delivered to the Trader Joe’s distribution center as a part of a larger order,” per the recall notice, which noted that a “subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's baking and icing processes.”
