A voluntary recall has been announced for Mauna Loa Milk Chocolate Covered Macadamias snack (1oz) pouches. The recall was initiated on February 15, 2025, after internal quality control processes identified an undeclared almond issue. The affected items were distributed to two retail locations in Southern California (World Market and Abraham & Sons, Inc.).
Undeclared almonds pose a serious health risk to individuals with almond allergies. No illnesses or adverse reactions have been reported as of the recall date. The company is removing the product from shelves and offering refunds through its customer service department.
