The recall was initiated after Aldi conducted routine testing to "verify the accuracy of allergen-related claims made on their product labeling, specifically a 'does not contain peanuts' statement," according to the company.

"One test result indicated a potential presence of a peanut allergen," Vita Warehouse noted.

Vita Warehouse confirmed that no other Welby, Berkley Jensen or VitaGlobe brand products are impacted by this recall.

"We want to assure consumers that their health and safety remain our top priority, and we are fully cooperating with the FDA throughout this process," Vita Warehouse told Fox News Digital.
