A 1kg tub of chocolate raisins is the sort of thing that gets passed round a room without a second thought, which is precisely why this one matters. Kestrel Foods is recalling its Forest Feast Belgian Milk Chocolate Raisins, sold at Costco, after the product was found to contain peanuts and nuts that aren't declared on the label. If anyone in your house has a peanut or tree nut allergy, this is one to pull out of the cupboard now.
These were sold at Costco. Check the batch code and the best before date printed on the pack, if it matches any of the three batches above with a best before of 31 December 2026, it's part of the recall.
If you have a peanut or nut allergy:
Costco stores are the point of contact for returns and refunds on this one.
A 1kg pack isn't a personal snack, it's the kind of thing that sits open on a desk, gets handed round at a family gathering, or ends up in a party bowl. That changes who's exposed. The person with the allergy often isn't the one who bought it and may never see the label at all, they just take a handful from a bowl. Cross-contact with peanuts and tree nuts is common in confectionery that's made on shared lines, so the label is the only safeguard a shopper has, and here it didn't carry the warning. If you buy in bulk from Costco or pick up sharing snacks for others, the FSA alerts page is the most reliable place to stay on top of what's been recalled.
