Certain M&M’s products have been recalled in 20 states, the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) announced.
On Jan. 26, Beacon Promotions Inc. issued a recall on repackaged M&M’s that do not contain the correct allergen warnings that the FDA requires.
The packaging does not disclose that the candies may contain milk, soy and peanuts.
The candies themselves are safe to eat for those without allergies, but consumers who may be allergic or sensitive to soy, peanuts or milk will be affected by the recall.
The FDA classified the recall as Class II on Feb. 4, meaning that consuming the product “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences” or “the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
More than 6,000 units of M&M’s products distributed with packaging labeled with a variety of promotional company names were recalled.
A select lot of 1.3-ounce bags of M&M’s Peanut candies and classic M&M’s candies in the promotional packaging were recalled at this time.
