Publix recalls snack mix that had peanuts

NEW YORK (AP) — Supermarket chain Publix is recalling a snack mix because the label doesn’t warn shoppers that it contains peanuts.

Peanuts can cause a serious allergic reaction in some individuals and should be listed on the packaging. No illnesses have been reported, the Lakeland, Florida-based company said Friday.

Publix Asian Mix was sold at all its stores in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee and North Carolina. The snack mix was sold in 14-ounce clear plastic containers and has since been removed from all store shelves, the company says. The recalled products had sell-by-dates between Jan. 3, 2015 and Feb. 3, 2015. They had UPC number 41415-20286.

Customers who bought the product can return it to a Publix store for a full refund.
