A California company is calling back more than 2,300 packages of peanuts following the glass-related recall on more than 37 million pounds of rice and noodles.
We who cover consumer product recalls often observe trends, though it’s not always because events are related. In the past year, one of the most common reasons for food recalls has been due to the presence of foreign matter, at times seemingly from the production or packaging processes. And in 2026, a sub-trend may be emerging: this is the fourth FDA alert we know of that cites a concern for glass inside food packaging.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published a report to reveal that on March 12, two brands of peanuts were recalled for “Foreign object (glass) found inside sealed container of finished product.”
This appears to affect 2,310 containers of Chilli Spanish Peanuts, sold under either First Street brand or Treasured Harvest brand. The former appears to be the store-owned brand at Smart & Final supermarkets, with the recalled peanuts in 11-ounce clear plastic containers (with 260422, 260442, 260543 as possible lot numbers and 2/11/2027, 2/13/2027, 2/23/2027 as possible expiration dates).
Treasured Harvest was reportedly sold in a 25-pound clear plastic container with lot number 260230 and expiration date 1/23/2027. Treasured Harvest is a company distributing nuts, dried fruit, dry soup mixes, and more, which appear to be sold at retailers such as Kroger and Amazon.
First Street Brand foods says it started out “as a warehouse-style brand.” Today, “First Street provides a wide variety of ‘Club Size; and bulk packaging specifically designed for large families and food service professionals. This includes everything from 100-ounce cans of vegetables to professional-grade cleaning supplies and large-count meat packs.”
The recalling firm for both brands is Ontario, California-based Western Mixers Produce & Nuts, Inc. Distribution was to “two consignees who have a total of 53 retail locations nationwide,” the FDA notice states.
On March 20, this overall recall was granted the FDA’s Class II risk level status, deeming it “a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
This follows the month’s recall expansions on more than 37 million pounds of rice, dumplings, and noodles sold at Trader Joe’s, Kroger, and other retailers, including in Canada.
