Vita-Warehouse Corp. of Vista, CA, is recalling one lot of Welby Vitamin B12 Energy Support 1000 mcg 140 Gummies, Berkley Jensen Vitamin B12 1000 mcg 250 Gummies, and VitaGlobe Vitamin B12 Extra Strength 60 Gummies because of the potential presence of undeclared peanuts. This poses a serious or life-threatening risk to individuals with peanut allergies or severe sensitivities.
The recall was initiated after routine testing by ALDI revealed the potential presence of peanuts in the products, despite a “does not contain peanuts” claim on the labeling. Although Vita-Warehouse Corp.’s internal testing found no peanuts, the recall was issued out of an abundance of caution to ensure consumer safety.
