Keylink Chocolate-Covered Coffee Beans Recalled Over Allergens 

Several varieties of Keylink chocolate-covered roasted coffee beans have been recalled because the products contain almonds, an ingredient not mentioned on the label.

The omission of the ingredient on the label means the coffee beans are a potential health risk to anyone with a nut or almond allergy.

The roasted chocolate-covered coffee beans were sold either as prepackaged, loose or as ingredients in other products.

According to the allergy alert, the coffee beans were sold at a number of retailers.

Consumers with questions should contact the relevant retailer where the product was purchased.
