New England Village Foods Issues Allergy Alert on Undeclared Almonds and Sesame in “19th Hole Snack Mix”

Raleigh, N.C., Jan. 14, 2026 — New England Village Foods of Milford, N.H., has recalled all lots of its 5‑ounce and 10‑ounce New England Village Snacks "19th Hole Snack Mix" because the product may contain undeclared almonds and its "Contains" statement omits sesame, creating a risk of serious or life‑threatening allergic reaction for people with nut or sesame allergies; consumers should not eat the product and should stop using it immediately. No illnesses have been reported to date. Production of the product has been temporarily suspended while the company investigates a packaging process breakdown that allowed almond‑containing product to be labeled without allergen disclosure.

The recalled items are packaged in clear cups and tubs with reclosable lids and have UPCs printed on the lid: 609465693477 for the 5‑ounce size and 642147152459 for the 10‑ounce size; the company identifies these by lot code(s) across all lots of both sizes. The products have been sold online and at select U.S. retailers — primarily small independent grocery markets and convenience stores throughout New England, New York and Pennsylvania — and have been sold since Sept. 15, 2025.

Consumers who purchased any 5‑ or 10‑ounce "19th Hole Snack Mix" should return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund or dispose of it safely; consumers seeking a replacement or refund may also contact New England Village Foods at 1‑603‑554‑1873 (M–F, 7 a.m.–4 p.m. Eastern) or email [email protected] for instructions and to request a claim; if you have a severe allergic reaction, seek immediate medical attention. If additional product identification or distribution details are needed, consumers should consult the retailer or the company website for updates.
