March 27, 2026 – from the FDA
Schreiber Foods, Inc of Green Bay, WI is voluntarily recalling 144 Cases of Honey Almond Cream Cheese Spread, because it may contain undeclared almonds. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to almonds run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product.
Product was distributed to store locations in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico and Wyoming through Einstein Bros. Bagel locations.
The product is a 6-ounce plastic cup. Labeled Einstein Bros. Bagels. It has a Honey Almond lid and a Plain cup. The lot code located on the bottom of the cup is Best If Used By Jul 21, 2026 LO.
This voluntary recall was initiated after shipment of product with mismatched lid and cup was discovered. The lid correctly identifies the product as Honey Almond, but the cup incorrectly identifies the product as Plain (containing no almonds). Subsequent investigation indicates there was a limited packaging staging issue that was corrected, and review confirmed the issue was contained to this product only.
Consumers who have purchased retail Einstein Bros. Brand Honey Almond Cream Cheese Spread with a Lot Code of Jul 21, 2026LO with a mismatched cup and lid are urged to return it to the place of purchase for a full refund. "Consumers with questions may contact the company through our website at www.einsteinbros.com/contact/."
