text: Move Comes as Part of FDA’s Safety Advisory Regarding Grain Craft Flour Recall 
   
   Hostess Brands, LLC is voluntarily recalling 710,000 cases of select snack cakes and donuts as a direct result of the recent recall by our supplier, Grain Craft, of certain lots of its flour for undeclared peanut residue. The Hostess Brands products subject to the recall were produced using the Grain Craft flour that has now been recalled and, as a result, these products may contain low levels of undeclared peanut residue. More information about the Grain Craft recall can be found on the FDA’s website at: http://www.fda.gov/Food/RecallsOutbreaksEmergencies/SafetyAlertsAdvisories/ucm504002.htm. 
   
   While those who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume products containing peanut allergens, the amount of peanut exposure from use of the flours and affected products is considered to be low and not expected to cause adverse health effects in the vast majority of peanut allergic consumers. To date, Hostess has received notice of two allergic reactions related to the product covered by this recall. Out of an abundance of caution, we are recalling the specific products listed on the attachment. 
   
   This recall applies only to the products listed. This recall does not affect any other Hostess Brands products.

   FDA Advisory 
   
   ### ||||| Hostess Brands and Frito-Lay are recalling some popular snack foods because they may contain undeclared peanut residue, which could be hazardous to people with peanut allergies. 
   
   Hostess is voluntarily recalling 710,000 cases of certain snack cakes and donuts sold nationwide, including Ding Dongs, Zingers, Chocodiles, and chocolate and powdered donuts. A complete list of the recalled products can be found on the FDA's website. 
   
   Hostess said in a statement that it is recalling the products "out of an abundance of caution" after its supplier, Grain Craft, informed the company of its own recall of certain lots of flour for undeclared peanut residue. The Hostess products subject to the recall were produced using the now-recalled Grain Craft flour. 
   
   Frito-Lay issued a voluntary recall of four varieties of Rold Gold pretzels, including select sizes of Tiny Twists, Thins, Sticks and Honey Wheat Braided, which were also made with Grain Craft flour. 
   
   People suffering from peanut allergy or severe sensitivity run the risk of serious and even life-threatening allergic reactions if they eat products containing peanut allergens. However, the amount of peanut residue in the flour of the affected products is thought to be low and not expected to cause adverse health effects in the vast majority of peanut allergic consumers, Hostess says. 
   
   To date, Hostess has been notified of two allergic reactions related to the products covered by the recall. ||||| HOSTESS BRANDS, LLC ISSUES RECALL ON POSSIBLE UNDECLARED PEANUT RESIDUE IN CERTAIN SNACK CAKE AND DONUT PRODUCTS

target: – If you have a peanut allergy, you may want to hold off on opening that box of Ding Dongs. Hostess is recalling 710,000 cases of some of its products over undeclared peanut residue they might contain, CBS News reports. In addition to Ding Dongs, the items being recalled include Zingers, Chocodiles, and a number of different kinds of donuts; the FDA has a complete list including UPC and batch numbers. A Hostess supplier, Grain Craft, told the company it was recalling certain lots of flour due to undeclared peanut residue, and Hostess decided to recall its own products made with that flour "out of an abundance of caution," it says in a statement. Two allergic reactions have been reported so far related to the recalled products.
