Food Recall Check
Class II · Moderate risk Terminated Initiated Aug 9, 2017 (9 years ago)

The Best Bar Ever recall

Recalled by The Best Bar Ever Inc. · Raleigh, NC, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

The Best Bar Ever initiated a voluntary recall of the Peanut Butter Crunch flavor (40g size) because the individual wrapper mistakenly has a gluten-free logo on the label. The wrapper for Peanut Butter Crunch flavor (40g size), had a gluten-free logo on the individual wrapper label. The ingredient listing and allergen statements are correct. The only issue is the gluten-free icon was not supposed to be on that flavor.

Undeclared allergens: Peanut Wheat

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.
