Jody’s Inc. issued a nationwide recall of Cabot Creamery Sea Salt Caramel Cheddar Popcorn due to the presence of undeclared peanuts. The recall process began after the Farmer Companies Inc. notified Jody’s of two customer complaints about discovering peanuts inside the popcorn bags—even though peanuts were not declared on the label. According to the FDA, “People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume the affected product,”

 

The recall affects 6-ounce (170g) bags marked with the lot number 2519907B1 and a "Best If Enjoyed By" date of July 15, 2026. The affected product bears UPC 8 50016 95530 6 and was distributed across the United States.

No illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported. Consumers who purchased this product should return it to the place of purchase for a full refund or discard it.
