FDA Allergy Alert: Check for First Street Dark Chocolate Raisins With Undeclared Peanuts
The FDA issued an allergy alert on June 15, 2026, for First Street Dark Chocolate Raisins because the product may contain undeclared peanuts. If anyone in your home has a peanut allergy, do not eat this product.
What product to check
Look for First Street Dark Chocolate Raisins in your pantry, snack drawer, lunchbox stash, car snacks, and any shared family food areas. Check any package you may have bought recently and compare it with the product details in the FDA notice.
This alert matters because peanuts are a common allergen, and even a small amount can trigger a serious reaction in people who are allergic. That is especially important in homes with children, where snack foods are often shared or packed quickly before school, camp, or travel.
Who should be most careful
Anyone with a peanut allergy should avoid this product completely. Families should also keep it away from children or guests who may not know it is in the kitchen. Do not taste it to check, and do not assume the chocolate coating or raisins make it safe.
How to check at home
Start with the places where snack foods gather: pantry shelves, lunchboxes, diaper bags, desk drawers, and backpacks. If you keep mix-ins for baking or trail mix, check those containers too. Use the FDA notice and the package identifiers to confirm whether your bag is affected.
What to do now
If you have the recalled product, do not serve it. Follow the FDA and company instructions in the notice, which may include returning it to the store or discarding it. If you throw it away, seal it so it cannot be mistaken for an okay snack later.
Why undeclared allergens are serious
Undeclared allergens are one of the most important food recall issues for households because the risk is not about food spoilage — it is about the label not matching what is inside. For families managing allergies, clear labeling is part of everyday safety. A quick pantry check now can help prevent an avoidable reaction later.
If you keep a running snack inventory at home, this is a good reminder to review labels before serving packaged treats to kids, visitors, or anyone with food allergies.
