Mondelez Canada Inc. is recalling its Cadbury Dairy Milk Oreo Candy bars due to the potential presence of undeclared pistachio, which poses a significant risk to individuals with tree nut allergies.
The Cadbury recall affects products distributed nationwide in Canada, both in physical stores and online.
The recall, announced on July 24, involves Cadbury Dairy Milk Oreo Candy bars in 38g and 12 x 38g sizes. The products have specific universal product codes, including 0 61200 01445 7 and 0 61200 01444 0, with various lot codes, such as 2026 NO 27 OEC3854844 and 2027 JA 5 OEC3860215.
The issue was identified because the presence of pistachio was not declared on the product label, potentially leading to serious allergic reactions for those sensitive to tree nuts.
