Western Mixers Produce & Nuts, Inc. Chilli Spanish Peanuts, First Street brand recall: Foreign object (glass) found inside sealed container of finished product
Foreign object (glass) found inside sealed container of finished product.
The hazard: Foreign material — glass
Fragments of glass may have got into this product during manufacture, which is why whole production codes are withdrawn rather than a handful of packs.
What the notice says: Foreign object (glass) found inside sealed container of finished product.
Why it matters: Pieces of glass may be inside the product. The risk here is physical rather than microbial: cuts to the mouth or throat, a broken tooth, or an injury further down if a fragment is swallowed.
Symptoms and when to call a doctor
If someone has swallowed a fragment and has mouth or throat pain, trouble swallowing, chest or stomach pain, vomiting, or blood in saliva or stool, they should be seen the same day. A fragment swallowed without symptoms usually passes on its own, but tell the clinician exactly what the product was: glass is usually visible on an X-ray, and a swallowed shard is one of the cases where imaging is worth doing.
This page is general information, not medical advice. If you feel unwell, a clinician who can see you is the only person able to judge your case.

What to do about Glass pieces
Western Mixers Produce & Nuts, Inc. — Fragments of glass may have got into this product during manufacture, which is why whole production codes are withdrawn rather than a handful of packs.
- Stop eating it, and do not pick through it to find the fragment — sorting it by hand is how people get cut.
- Keep the pack if you can. If anyone was hurt, the fragment and the packaging together are the evidence that matters.
- Return it to the store or bin it sealed, and claim the refund using the lot code from the label.
- Check the freezer and the pantry for other packs carrying the same codes before you consider the matter closed.
How to get your money back
Food recalls carry a full refund, and in the United States you usually do not need the receipt or the packaging.
- Take the product, or your photo of the label, to the customer service desk of the store where you bought it. Nearly every national grocer refunds recalled food on the spot.
- Bought it online? Open the order in your account and use the refund option; marketplace sellers are required to honour a federal recall.
- If the store refuses, contact the recalling company using the details on this page. The firm, not the shop, carries the cost of a recall.
- If you have a loyalty card, the retailer can look the purchase up in your history — Kroger, Costco and Walmart all do this routinely.
