Danone¿ Dairy Drink Nut and Cereal recall
Recalled by The Dannon Company, Inc. · Tarrytown, NY, United States
Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.
Why it was recalled
The label incorrectly states "WALNUT" in the ingredient list and the allergen statement, while the product actually contains PECAN as an ingredient.
Undeclared allergen: Tree nuts
For someone with a food allergy the label is the only protection. An undeclared allergen can trigger a severe reaction even in a trace amount, which is why most of these recalls are Class I. All undeclared allergens recalls.

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to tree nuts; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
Reason The recalled products are incorrectly labeled because the 12 pack overwrap label includes a "Certified Gluten-Free" mark while the product contains and the overwrap label correctly lists WHEAT as an ingredient.
Reason Soba sauce packet, which contains bonito, sardine, and mackerel (fish), was packed into Sura Tanmen Hot and Sour Flavor ramen noodle package kit, but fish species are not declared on finished product label.
