Stew Leonard's Recalls Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread

Stew Leonard's has voluntarily recalled its Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread sold exclusively at the Danbury location, as it may contain undeclared walnuts, posing a risk to individuals with nut allergies. A total of 39 packages were sold between September 26 and October 2, and the recall was prompted after a customer discovered walnuts in a loaf that were not listed on the label. No illnesses have been reported so far, but the company warns that consuming the product could lead to serious or life-threatening allergic reactions for those sensitive to walnuts. Customers who purchased the bread are advised to either discard it or return it to the store for a full refund. This recall follows a previous incident earlier this year where a consumer died from an allergic reaction to a product with undeclared ingredients. Stew Leonard's is taking this matter seriously and prioritizing consumer safety.
