Hey guys! I bought a bag of great value pistachios yesterday and they contained peanuts. A friend suggested I post a warning here as the bag doesnt even mention it could have traces of peanuts, just almonds.

The lot was W076988

Edit- Store Walmart in East Coast USA

Edit #2- Im calling the FDA number the FDA emergency hotline gave me earlier this am. They dont open until 830a.(The number on the bag was also not open for calls when I opened the bag earlier) Also plan on going back to the store, Im sure theyll be contacted but I want my actual pistachios anyway so lol

Edit #3- Contacted Walmart around 830(number on back of bag) and gave them all the info they requested. Was told theyd report to suppliers, ect. I had called FDA at 830, as directed by the FDA emergency hotline earlier at like 1 am, but the auto machine said a representative wasn't available until 10a. Once I got to a representative, they told me its always quicker to contact the product company, but I could also do a voluntary report on it on safetyreporting.hhs.gov if I wanted to. Did that and submitted photos so hopefully they will take care of everything on their end! Just wanted to update how I ended up reporting it just in case anyone else ever needs to in the USA!

Hey guys! Ive never been in this subreddit so I hope I put the correct flair, as Im not sure if its only for official recalls.

Anyway, I bought this bag of great value pistachios yesterday and they contained peanuts. A friend suggested I post a warning here as the bag doesnt even mention it could have traces of peanuts, just almonds.
