Mondelēz Global (NASDAQ:MDLZ) has announced a voluntary recall of specific RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches due to a labeling error. The recall affects four carton sizes: 8-pack, 20-pack, 40-pack, and the 20-pack Variety Pack, with specific "Best When Used By" dates between November 2025 and January 2026.

The issue stems from individually wrapped packs that may be incorrectly labeled as Cheese variety while containing peanut butter filling. While outer cartons are correctly labeled with peanut allergen warnings, this mislabeling poses a serious risk to individuals with peanut allergies. The company has reported no injuries or illnesses to date and is conducting the recall as a precautionary measure.

The error originated from defective film packaging rolls supplied to the company. Mondelēz has established a 24/7 consumer hotline at 1-844-366-1171 for additional information.
