Discount supermarket chain Aldi has issued recalls for several food products sold across 37 US states. In coordination with suppliers and federal agencies, the supermarket chain has asked customers to stop using and discard affected products. Aldi says the move is precautionary and aims to protect consumer health.

Undeclared allergens, like peanuts, milk, and soy, can pose serious risks to people with allergies. Even trace amounts can cause severe reactions. In some cases, products were also recalled for potential contamination with metal fragments as reported by the Newsweek.

RV Pharma recalled the product on June 13 for undeclared peanuts. Sold in 37 states, customers with allergies should avoid it and return for a refund.

Why it matters


In an interview with Newsweek, allergy expert Dr. Sebastian Lighvani said that even small amounts of allergens can be dangerous.

“An allergic person sees this food as a threat, which triggers an immune response,” he explained. This can lead to inflammation, breathing problems, and even life-threatening reactions in severe cases.

Customers are urged to check their pantries and return affected products to Aldi for a full refund. Any unopened or partially used packages should be discarded immediately.

Those who feel unwell or suspect an allergic reaction after consuming any of the recalled items should consult a doctor and report the incident to the FDA’s MedWatch program.

Aldi said in a statement: “Our top priority is the safety of you and your family. We are committed to high product quality and work with trusted manufacturers to maintain that promise.”
