Pinnacle Foods Group Inc. of Mountain Lakes, NJ is recalling a limited production run of Duncan Hines Double Fudge Brownie mix, which was manufactured by a co-packer for distribution by Pinnacle, due to an undeclared ingredient (walnuts). This recall applies only to the following products: "Duncan Hines Family Style Chewy Fudge Brownies" with the lot code listed below, which were sold at Safeway stores located ONLY in Northern California, Nevada and Hawaii serviced by Safeway's Tracy, CA Distribution Center.

These cartons may contain "Walnut Brownie" mix rather than the "Family Style Chewy Fudge Brownie" mix and could therefore contain nuts not listed on the carton. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to walnuts may run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product.
