Knockro Inc. just dropped a serious recall for anyone who’s picked up one of their Bonya yogurt parfaits recently.
The company is recalling these products nationwide after finding out that some of them contain almonds that weren’t declared on the label. Yep, that granola topping you thought was harmless might be packing nuts, and for anyone with an almond allergy, that’s a potentially life-threatening problem.
These yogurt parfaits are sold across retail stores in the U.S. and come in a clear 12-ounce plastic cup. The expiration date stamped on the affected batches is May 5th, 2025, so if you’ve got one in your fridge, it’s time to double-check.
So, what went wrong? According to Knockro, the whole issue stems from a temporary breakdown in the production and packaging process. Somehow, almond-containing granola made it into the parfaits without anyone updating the labels to warn customers. That means people who are allergic to almonds could eat one of these parfaits without realizing the danger until it’s too late.
The yogurt parfait recall was launched the moment the company discovered the labeling fail. Thankfully, no illnesses have been reported so far, which is great news. But just because no one’s gotten sick doesn’t mean the threat isn’t real. Allergic reactions to nuts can be fast, severe, and even deadly. That’s why the FDA takes undeclared allergens this seriously, and why Knockro is moving fast to get these products off the shelves.
If you’ve already bought one of these Bonya yogurt parfaits, don’t eat it. You’re being asked to return it to the place where you bought it for a full refund. No receipt? Doesn’t matter, they’ll take it back. Got questions? You can call Knockro directly at 914-313-6905 for more details or concerns.
This situation is yet another reminder of just how important clear and accurate food labeling is. One missed ingredient on a label might not seem like a big deal, but for people with food allergies, it can literally be a matter of life or death.
The takeaway here is simple: check your labels. Even your go-to snacks can sometimes contain unexpected ingredients. And if you’ve got a Bonya parfait at home with a May 5th, 2025 expiration date, toss it or take it back. Better safe than sorry.
