FDA Warning: Peanut Traces Found in Cumin Products

02-19-2015

Those with peanut allergies might want to avoid cumin, according to the Food and Drug Administration.

The FDA issued a warning after traces of peanut were found in the spice and hundreds of products were recalled.

Health officials say if you have a peanut allergy, you should also avoid products that contain cumin.

"You might do all of the things you are supposed to do and read the label, but there could still be undeclared allergens," Dr. Michael Pistiner, a Boston-based pediatric allergist, said.

The recall has been in place since December 2014.
