“Rold Gold Pretzel Recall: Undeclared Peanuts.” GovInfoNow, updated October 9, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/24111-rold-gold-pretzel-recall-undeclared-peanuts. Based on FDA recall #F-1827-2016 (https://api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22F-1827-2016%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The pretzels may contain undeclared peanuts, which can trigger severe allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. The presence of this allergen is not listed on the label, preventing consumers from avoiding it.

Who’s affected

Consumers who purchased Rold Gold pretzels with the specified 'guaranteed fresh' dates and manufacturing codes. Individuals with peanut allergies are at risk of an allergic reaction if they eat these products.

How to tell if you have this one

Look for Rold Gold Tiny Twists (1 oz., 2 oz., 16 oz., and 20 1/2 oz.), Original Pretzel Thins (4 oz. and 16 oz.), or Sticks (16 oz.) in flexible plastic bags. Check the 'guaranteed fresh' date for June 28, 2016 - August 23, 2016, and verify the 9-digit manufacturing code directly underneath has the number '32' in the second and third positions (e.g., x32xxxxxx).
