Recall of Maple Pecan Oat Bars for Undeclared Peanuts

Bobo’s of Boulder, Colorado is issuing a voluntary recall of Bobo’s Maple Pecan Oat Bars because they may contain undeclared peanuts.  The recall was initiated after it was discovered that product containing peanuts was distributed in packaging that did not reveal the presence of peanuts on the ingredient deck.

While not specifically stated in the notice, one could guess that this was a product mix-up where peanut based product was packed into Maple Pecan bar packaging.  [I guess Bobo's made a booboo.]
