Recall System, 6 September 2018. 

2. COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT: Whitley’s Peanut Factory of Hayes, Virginia is recalling 

12oz Deluxe Nut Mix with specific code dates because they may contain undeclared peanuts, 

milk, soy, wheat, and sesame. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to these 

ingredients run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these 

products. 

Deluxe Nut Mix was distributed to wholesalers and retail customers nationwide between the 

weeks of August 21st, 2023, through January 10th, 2024. The product(s) were available for 

purchase on the company website at www.WhitleysPeanut.com, through mail-order catalogue, 

and in select US retail stores.

The recall of this product was initiated after the Quality Assurance Department became aware of 

a limited number of 10.5oz Whit’s Party Mix tins labeled with 12oz Deluxe Nut Mix labels. The 

depth of the recall has been expanded to include the previous production date through the time in 

which the company became aware of the issue. While both products contain almonds, Whit’s 

Party Mix also includes peanuts, milk, soy, wheat, and sesame which are not listed in the 

“Contains” statement of the Deluxe Nut Mix label.

Customers who may have purchased or received this product are advised to inspect any Deluxe 

Nut Mix 12oz tins for the lot codes above and discontinue use immediately if found to be 

affected.

The company has received no reports of illness or injury to date. 

This recall is being executed with the knowledge of the US Food and Drug Administration.
