Trophy Nut Recalls Peanuts Due to Cashew Contamination

The Trophy Nut Company has issued a recall for 143 cases of Heinen’s brand 8.25-ounce cans of honey-roasted peanuts due to an allergen contamination risk, specifically the presence of cashews. The recall affects products distributed in Ohio and Illinois between October 24, 2024, and April 4, 2025, with 'best if used by' dates of October 1, 2025, and 'best by' dates of October 3, 2025. This action was prompted by a consumer complaint after someone suffered an allergic reaction. A subsequent investigation revealed the contamination was due to a production and packaging error. Consumers are encouraged to return the affected products to Heinen’s grocery stores for a full refund. The FDA underscores the serious risk for those with cashew allergies consuming these mislabeled products.
