Mondel膿z Global LLC Conducts U.S. Voluntary Recall of Four Carton Sizes of RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches Due to Labeling Error
Mondel膿z Global (NASDAQ:MDLZ) has announced a voluntary recall of specific RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches due to a labeling error. The recall affects four carton sizes: 8-pack, 20-pack, 40-pack, and the 20-pack Variety Pack, with specific "Best When Used By" dates between November 2025 and January 2026.
The issue stems from individually wrapped packs that may be incorrectly labeled as Cheese variety while containing peanut butter filling. While outer cartons are correctly labeled with peanut allergen warnings, this mislabeling poses a serious risk to individuals with peanut allergies. The company has reported no injuries or illnesses to date and is conducting the recall as a precautionary measure.
The error originated from defective film packaging rolls supplied to the company. Mondel膿z has established a 24/7 consumer hotline at 1-844-366-1171 for additional information.Mondel膿z Global (NASDAQ:MDLZ) ha annunciato un richiamo volontario di specifici RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches a causa di un errore di etichettatura. Il richiamo riguarda quattro formati di confezioni: confezione da 8, da 20, da 40 e il Variety Pack da 20, con date di "Best When Used By" comprese tra novembre 2025 e gennaio 2026.
Il problema deriva da confezioni singole che potrebbero essere etichette erroneamente come variet脿 al formaggio pur contenendo ripieno di burro di arachidi. Sebbene le confezioni esterne riportino correttamente l'avvertenza sugli allergeni di arachidi, questa errata etichettatura rappresenta un serio rischio per chi soffre di allergia alle arachidi. L'azienda ha comunicato di non aver ricevuto segnalazioni di infortuni o malattie e sta effettuando il richiamo come misura precauzionale.
L'errore 猫 stato causato da rotoli di film per imballaggio difettosi forniti all'azienda. Mondel膿z ha attivato una linea telefonica per i consumatori disponibile 24/7 al numero 1-844-366-1171 per ulteriori informazioni.

El error se origin贸 por rollos defectuosos de film para empaques suministrados a la empresa. Mondel膿z ha establecido una l铆nea telef贸nica para consumidores disponible 24/7 al 1-844-366-1171 para m谩s informaci贸n.

Mondel膿z Global (NASDAQ:MDLZ) a annonc茅 un rappel volontaire de certains sandwiches craquelins RITZ au beurre de cacahu猫te en raison d'une erreur d'茅tiquetage. Le rappel concerne quatre tailles de cartons : paquet de 8, paquet de 20, paquet de 40 et le pack vari茅t茅 de 20, avec des dates "Best When Used By" sp茅cifiques entre novembre 2025 et janvier 2026.
Le probl猫me provient de paquets individuels pouvant 锚tre incorrectement 茅tiquet茅s comme vari茅t茅 fromage alors qu'ils contiennent une garniture au beurre de cacahu猫te. Bien que les cartons ext茅rieurs soient correctement 茅tiquet茅s avec des avertissements concernant les allerg猫nes aux arachides, cette erreur d'茅tiquetage repr茅sente un risque s茅rieux pour les personnes allergiques aux arachides. La soci茅t茅 a d茅clar茅 aucune blessure ni maladie 脿 ce jour et proc猫de au rappel par mesure de pr茅caution.
L'erreur provient de rouleaux de film d'emballage d茅fectueux fournis 脿 l'entreprise. Mondel膿z a mis en place une ligne t茅l茅phonique consommateur disponible 24h/24 et 7j/7 au 1-844-366-1171 pour plus d'informations.
Mondel膿z Global (NASDAQ:MDLZ) hat einen freiwilligen R眉ckruf bestimmter RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches aufgrund eines Etikettierungsfehlers angek眉ndigt.

Das Problem liegt bei einzeln verpackten Produkten, die f盲lschlicherweise als K盲se-Variante etikettiert sein k枚nnten, obwohl sie eine Erdnussbutterf眉llung enthalten. W盲hrend die 盲u脽eren Kartons korrekt mit einem Hinweis auf Erdnussallergene gekennzeichnet sind, stellt diese Fehlkennzeichnung ein ernstes Risiko f眉r Personen mit Erdnussallergien dar. Das Unternehmen hat bislang keine Verletzungen oder Erkrankungen gemeldet und f眉hrt den R眉ckruf als Vorsichtsma脽nahme durch.
Der Fehler entstand durch fehlerhafte Verpackungsfolienrollen, die an das Unternehmen geliefert wurden. Mondel膿z hat eine rund um die Uhr erreichbare Hotline f眉r Verbraucher unter 1-844-366-1171 f眉r weitere Informationen eingerichtet.

Insights
MDLZ's limited recall of mislabeled RITZ products poses minimal financial impact but highlights allergen control challenges.
Mondel膿z's voluntary recall of specific RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwich products represents a targeted food safety action with likely minimal financial impact. The recall affects just four carton configurations with specific production dates, indicating a contained issue rather than a systemic manufacturing problem.
The recall stems from a supplier error affecting packaging film rolls, creating a situation where products containing peanut butter were incorrectly labeled as cheese variety. Importantly, the outer packaging correctly identifies peanut content, which provides a critical secondary control. This multi-layered labeling approach likely reduces the potential exposure significantly.
From a regulatory perspective, this demonstrates appropriate precautionary measures despite no reported illnesses or injuries. The company's prompt notification to the FDA and establishment of a 24/7 consumer hotline aligns with best practices in allergen management protocols.
This limited recall likely represents a negligible financial impact for a company of Mondel膿z's size. The affected production represents a small fraction of their RITZ product line, with most varieties and production dates unaffected. The corrective actions mentioned suggest a focus on supplier management rather than internal manufacturing processes, indicating this isn't reflective of broader quality control issues within Mondel膿z's operations.
EAST HANOVER, N.J., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mondel膿z Global LLC announced today a voluntary recall of four carton sizes of RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches (8-pack, 20-pack, and 40-pack cartons of RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches, as well as the 20-pack RITZ Filled Cracker Sandwich Variety Pack carton) manufactured in the United States and sold nationwide. The affected cartons include individually wrapped packs that may be incorrectly labeled as Cheese variety even though the product may be a Peanut Butter variety. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts may risk serious or life-threatening allergic reactions by consuming this product.
All outer cartons affected are labeled correctly and provide an allergen advisory statement indicating that the product 鈥渃ontains peanuts.鈥�
