Meijer Issues Recall on Frederik’s Dark Chocolate Almonds Due to Presence of Undeclared Cashews

Grand Rapids, Mich., June 13, 2025 — Meijer is recalling certain Frederik’s Dark Chocolate Almonds products because they may contain undeclared dark chocolate-covered cashews, posing a risk of a serious or life‑threatening allergic reaction to people with cashew allergies or severe sensitivities; consumers should stop using the products immediately and not eat them. Meijer says it has not received any reports of illness related to this issue and that the recall was initiated after a customer notified the retailer of the problem.
