The snacks were sold in 850 gram packages with a best before date of August 28, 2024. 

The agency says people with celiac disease or other gluten-related disorders should not consume the recalled product as it may cause a serious or life-threatening reaction.

It says there has been one reported reaction in a person who ate the snack bites.

The agency says the products should be thrown out or returned to the location where they were purchased.
