DETROIT (CBS Detroit) - The FDA has issued three separate food recalls related to undeclared allergens.

The first is a result of a cracker mix up. White Wave Foods recalling 7.5 ounce packages of Horizon Cheddar Sandwich Crackers because they may contain peanut butter sandwich crackers instead — which can pose a danger for those with peanut allergies.

The FDA says around 62,000 boxes of the product were shipped to retailers and wholesalers in multiple states, including Michigan.  Consumers should check the top of the individual box and look for a "best before" date of 17 May 2015, and check the bottom of the box for a Universal Product Code (UPC) of 42365 00464.

The product may be returned at the point of purchase, and those with questions can call 1-866-663-4349.

Separately, Old Home Kitchens is recalling "Sock It To Me Crème Cake" because it contains pecans not included in the list of ingredients on the packaging. The product was sold at Walmart Stores stores under "the Bakery baked with pride" label )with a production code of 150301100 through 150310700 ink jet coded on plastic dome, because they contain undeclared pecans. People who have allergy or sensitivity to pecans run the risk of serious or life threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.  Consumers can return the cake to Walmart for a refund.

Lastly, consumers are being asked to check the cumin in their spice cabinets. Con Yeager Spice Company out of Pennsylvania had previously issued a voluntary recall for multiple sized packages under multiple brand names of ground cumin and multiple seasoning blends (containing ground cumin) due to undeclared Peanut allergens; and now the company has revised its list of affected products to correct several brand names and provide additional gift box information. [Get complete product details HERE].

People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts run the risk of serious or life threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products, according to the FDA – although there have been no consumer complaints or reports of allergic reactions to date.

Con Yeager Spice Company is asking customers at risk for peanut allergies to discontinue using the product immediately.
Those with question can call contact Con Yeager Spice Company's customer service at 1-800-222- 2460 during normal business hours.
