Aldi's Holiday Treats Recalled Due to Undeclared Allergens, Customers Urged to Discard or Return Them Immediately
In a recent announcement, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) informed consumers that Aldi, the popular discount grocery store chain, is recalling two of its holiday treats due to possible undeclared allergens. The affected products are the Choceur-branded cookie butter holiday bark and the pecan, cranberry, and cinnamon holiday bark.
According to the FDA, customers who have purchased these items may be at risk of an allergic reaction if they contain undeclared ingredients that could cause harm to individuals with specific allergies. Specifically, the pecan, cranberry, and cinnamon holiday bark may contain undeclared wheat, while the cookie butter holiday bark may contain undeclared pecans.
The recall affects two 5-ounce packages of each product, which were sold nationwide at Aldi stores. While no illnesses have been reported in connection with the recall, the FDA is taking a precautionary approach to ensure consumer safety.
In light of this development, customers are advised to discard the recalled products immediately or return them to their local Aldi store for a full refund. The company emphasizes that the only way to ensure safe consumption is by disposing of these items and obtaining a new product.

... like, who doesn't love holiday treats? But I guess it's better to be safe than sorry, right? So, apparently Aldi had some cookie butter and pecan bark with undeclared allergens in them 
. That's crazy! I mean, how does that even happen? Anyway, I'm definitely discarding mine ASAP 
... don't wanna risk getting sick over a holiday treat 
. And omg, can you imagine if someone had an allergic reaction from eating these things? 
No thanks! Aldi is being super responsible by recalling the products and giving customers the option to return them for a refund. That's totally fair 
. Let this be a lesson to all of us... always read labels before buying 
!
. I mean, it's always better to be safe than sorry, right? But, come on, who actually thinks those products are harmless just because they don't have an ingredient list that says "may contain" or something? 
It's like, what if someone has a super rare allergy and doesn't know about it? 
Yeah, I think the FDA is doing us all a solid by being cautious here.
It's just common sense, right?
OMG, I'm like so worried about those people who bought those holiday treats from Aldi! 
Aldi is taking the right step by recalling those products, even though no one got sick yet. 
Aldi has always been my fave grocery store and now i'm worried about all the holiday treats i bought 
️ i mean, who checks for allergens in cookie butter lol? i just hope no one gets sick from these but at least aldí is being responsible by recalling them ASAP 
I'm kinda bummed when I saw this news... who wants to think about allergies right before the holidays? 
.
is it weird that i thought they were still out in stores tho? anyway, shouldnt the ppl at aldi just make sure what's in there 2 start with lol? and why cant we just have a list of ingredients on the packaging like normal?!
