Trail's End Popcorn - recall concern

For those T125 people that sold (or bought) Trail's End Carmel Corn with Peanuts this past fall, attached is a precautionary recall notice.    This is a part of the many product recalls ongoing right now for peanut-based foods and there is not any illness attributed to this particular product.

However, it might be a great illustration of the Scout Law to call any customers you sold this popcorn to, and make sure they are aware of the notice.     Chances are that they long ago ate it and enjoyed it, but they'll respect you and your character a lot in following this up.  

 

  FDA posts press releases and other notices of recalls and market withdrawals from the firms involved as a service to consumers, the media, and other interested parties. FDA does not endorse either the product or the company.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- February 4, 2009 – As a result of the expansion of Peanut Corporation of America’s (PCA) Salmonella related recall to include all peanut ingredient products produced in their Blakely, Georgia facility since January 1, 2007, Weaver Popcorn Company has issued a precautionary voluntary recall for the following product:

  • 9.5 oz. Trail’s End® Caramel Corn with Peanuts, with code date markings of “102861 109 JAN 19 08” through “102861 297 JUL 23 09”.

No other Trail's End or Weaver Popcorn Company products are part of this recall.

"Although Weaver Popcorn has received no complaints or reports of any illness related to this product, we are taking this precautionary action out of an abundance of caution and consistent with our 80-year unwavering commitment to consumer safety and to providing the highest-quality products," said Mike Weaver, Weaver Popcorn Company President and CEO.

Since the vast majority of this product has not been sold for a number of months, it is assumed that what has been sold has been consumed. Consumers who have purchased this recalled product are urged to destroy it. Consumers with an unopened, sealed popcorn foil bag, with the above listed code dates, can arrange for a refund by calling 1-800-782-4255 (Monday through Friday from 8:00am – 3:00pm EST) or by sending an email to ccp@trails-end.com
