# Major Recall Alert: Bengal King Jhal Chanachur Food Treats Recalled Due to Undeclared Peanut Allergen

South Asian Food Inc., based in Maspeth, Queens, NY, has announced an urgent recall of its Bengal King Jhal Chanachur food treats. The recall stems from the discovery that these products may contain undeclared peanuts, posing a severe health risk to individuals with peanut allergies. This recall affects 12.34 oz (350 gm) plastic jars of the popular snack, which were distributed across retail stores nationwide and via mail orders.

If you or someone you know has purchased this product, here’s why it matters and what you should do next.
