Here’s why Mini Cinnamon Crumb Cakes got recalled from Whole Foods stores in 6 states
A Whole Foods Market employee might’ve saved a life or just a few hospital trips, according to a recall alert from Boston Baking concerning the company’s Mini Cinnamon Crumb Cakes.
“The recall was initiated after it was discovered by Whole Foods Market team member that the pecan-containing product was distributed in packaging that did not include pecans in the ingredient list,” the Boston Baking-written, FDA-posted recall alert states.
If you don’t have a pecan allergy, this isn’t a problem. On the other hand, the notice states, “People who have allergies to pecans run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.”
