The company says that, while there have been no complaints about illness related to the crackers, they are conducting the recall as a precaution.

All the crackers involved in the recall have a best if used by date of between Jan. 14, 2019 and April 19, 2019.

If you have any of these products in your home, the company says you should discard them as soon as possible.
