Nationwide Chocolate and Dairy Recall Chaos: Hidden Viagra, Peanut Contamination, Milk Allergens, and E. coli Sparks Urgent FDA Alerts

Sexual Enhancement Chocolate Sold in Adult Stores Nationwide Recalled After FDA Finds Hidden Viagra and Cialis Ingredients

A Michigan-based distributor is voluntarily recalling a sexual enhancement chocolate product sold in adult retail stores and online after federal testing confirmed it contains two undeclared prescription drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction.

Nalpac of Ferndale, Michigan, announced the recall of “DTF Sexual Chocolate” on April 6, 2026, after the product was found to contain sildenafil and tadalafil—the active pharmaceutical ingredients in Viagra and Cialis, respectively. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration published the recall notice on April 7.

The recalled chocolate, packaged in cases of 20 retail units and identifiable by UPC code 757817783069, was available for purchase at adult retail locations nationwide and through the websites shopsexology.com and royalsins.com. Nalpac stated it is not the manufacturer of the product but is voluntarily recalling all units it purchased and resold.

According to the FDA, the presence of sildenafil and tadalafil in an over-the-counter food product poses a significant health risk because consumers may unknowingly ingest prescription-strength medications. Both drugs are approved only for use under the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional. The undeclared ingredients can interact with nitrates found in prescription drugs such as nitroglycerin, potentially causing a dangerous and sudden drop in blood pressure to life-threatening levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease are often prescribed nitrate-containing medications and may be at heightened risk.

Nalpac reported that it has not received any reports of adverse events related to the recalled product as of the recall date.

The company is notifying its retail customers by email and is arranging for the return of all affected inventory. Consumers and retailers who have purchased or stocked DTF Sexual Chocolate are instructed to immediately stop using or selling the product and either return it to the place of purchase or discard it.

Consumers with questions may contact Nalpac by telephone at 248-541-1140 or by email at sales@nalpac.com, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Anyone who has experienced health problems potentially related to using the product should contact their physician or healthcare provider.

Adverse reactions or quality issues may be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program online at www.fda.gov/medwatch/report.htm.

The recall is being conducted with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Pennsylvania Grocery Chain Recalls Chocolate Raspberry Cups After Peanut Contamination Discovered in Mislabeled Packages

A Pennsylvania grocery chain is recalling its store-brand dark chocolate raspberry cups after discovering the candies may contain undeclared peanuts, posing a serious or life-threatening risk to individuals with peanut allergies.

Karns Foods of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, announced the voluntary recall on April 2, 2026. The affected product, “Mini Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cups,” was sold exclusively at Karns Foods locations throughout Pennsylvania in clear plastic packages weighing approximately 8 ounces.

According to the company’s announcement published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the recalled packages bear a pack date of September 18, 2025. Approximately 26 to 42 packages were affected by the labeling error.

The recall was initiated after an internal investigation revealed that product containing peanuts had been distributed in packaging that failed to list peanuts as an ingredient. The company attributed the oversight to a temporary breakdown in its packaging processes.

Karns Foods stated that all products with the affected pack date were pulled from store shelves on January 30, 2026, and that notification efforts targeting registered rewards shoppers who purchased the item were made at that time. No illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported to date in connection with the recall.

Consumers who purchased the Mini Dark Chocolate Raspberry Cups are urged to return the product to any Karns Foods location for a full refund. Customers with questions may contact the company at 717-766-6477, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Wawa Recalls 16-Ounce Beverages in Five States Over Undeclared Milk Allergen, Citing Equipment Malfunction

Wawa has issued a voluntary recall of several of its branded 16-ounce refrigerated beverages sold in stores across Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Virginia after discovering the drinks may contain undeclared milk, a potentially life-threatening allergen for sensitive individuals.

The convenience store chain, headquartered in Media, Pennsylvania, announced the recall on April 3, 2026. The affected products include 16-ounce pints of Wawa Iced Tea Lemon, Wawa Iced Tea Diet Lemon, Wawa Diet Lemonade, and Wawa Fruit Punch produced by the Wawa Beverage Company.

According to the company’s statement published by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the recall was initiated after Wawa identified and corrected a temporary equipment issue that may have resulted in the presence of milk residue in the listed beverages. Milk is one of the major food allergens and can cause serious or life-threatening reactions in individuals with milk allergies or severe lactose intolerance.

The recalled products were distributed to a limited number of Wawa locations within the five-state region. The company confirmed that no Wawa stores outside of Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Virginia are impacted, and no other Wawa-branded beverages are included in the recall. A full list of affected store locations and product images is available on the company’s recall alert page at wawa.com.

Wawa reported that all impacted products have been removed from store shelves and disposed of. No illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported to date in connection with the undeclared milk allergen.

Consumers who purchased any of the recalled 16-ounce beverages are urged to dispose of them immediately. Customers with questions or those seeking a refund in the form of a Wawa Gift Card may contact the Wawa 24-hour Customer Contact Center at 1-800-444-9292. Additional information is available on the company’s website at www.wawa.com.

Raw Milk Cheese Maker Issues Recall for Cheddar Products Amid E. coli Outbreak Investigation, While Firmly Disputing Link

A California raw dairy producer has issued a voluntary recall of its raw cheddar cheese products after federal health officials linked the brand to an ongoing E. coli outbreak investigation, though the company maintains that no pathogens have been detected in its own samples and contests being identified as the source.

Raw Farm of Fresno, California, announced the recall on April 2, 2026, and subsequently issued a clarified notice on April 7, 2026, withdrawing earlier language that described the recall as being performed “under protest.” The recall affects Raw Farm-brand raw milk cheddar cheese sold in both shredded and block forms.

According to the company’s statement, the recall was initiated at the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration following the agency’s issuance of an outbreak advisory for E. coli O157:H7 linked to raw cheddar cheese. Raw Farm emphasized that no pathogens have been found in any of its cheese products, nor in samples collected by FDA investigators or state health department officials.

“While Raw Farm reserves its rights and disputes being the cause of this outbreak, in the interest of public health and safety, Raw Farm issues this Voluntary Recall,” the company stated in its April 7 update.

The recalled products are limited to specific batches of Raw Farm-brand cheddar cheese produced prior to certain dates, as detailed in the company’s recall notice. No other Raw Farm products are affected. The cheese is made from unpasteurized milk and is compliant with federal regulations governing raw milk cheeses aged for at least 60 days.

E. coli O157:H7 is a potentially deadly bacterium that can cause severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea, and vomiting. In vulnerable populations, including young children and the elderly, the infection can lead to hemolytic uremic syndrome, a type of kidney failure.

Consumers who have purchased the recalled cheese are advised not to consume it and to return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund. Information regarding the FDA’s outbreak investigation is available on the agency’s website. Consumers with questions may contact Raw Farm through the company’s website.

Weight Gain Supplement Sold on eBay Nationwide Recalled After FDA Finds Hidden Prescription Steroid and Antihistamine

A dietary supplement marketed online as a natural appetite stimulant and weight gain aid has been recalled nationwide after federal testing revealed the capsules contain two undeclared prescription drugs, including a powerful corticosteroid that can suppress the body’s immune system and cause life-threatening withdrawal symptoms.

Aphreseller, a seller operating on eBay under the store name Buy-herbal.com, announced the voluntary recall of all lots of “Kian Pee Wan” capsules on March 30, 2026. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration published the recall notice on April 1.

According to FDA laboratory analysis, the capsules contain dexamethasone and cyproheptadine—neither of which are listed on the product label. Dexamethasone is a prescription corticosteroid used to treat severe inflammatory conditions. Cyproheptadine is a prescription antihistamine approved for allergy treatment. Because the product contains these drugs, it cannot be legally marketed as a dietary supplement and is considered an unapproved new drug for which safety and efficacy have not been established.

The FDA warning states that corticosteroid use can impair the body’s ability to fight infections, elevate blood sugar levels, cause muscle injuries, trigger psychiatric disturbances, and increase the risk of cardiovascular events. When taken in high doses or for extended periods, dexamethasone can suppress adrenal gland function—a potentially fatal condition. Abruptly stopping the drug can lead to severe withdrawal symptoms.

Cyproheptadine, the second undeclared ingredient, may cause sedation, dizziness, fatigue, restlessness, dry mouth, nausea, diarrhea or constipation, urinary retention, and blurred vision.

The recalled product is packaged in a white bottle with a beige label containing 30 pills. It was distributed nationwide through the eBay online marketplace.

Aphreseller stated it is notifying customers via email and this public announcement and is arranging for returns. Consumers who purchased Kian Pee Wan capsules are instructed to stop using the product immediately and either discard it, return it to the place of purchase, or consult a healthcare provider. Customers who purchased from Aphreseller on eBay may return the product to 136-61 41st Ave, #602, Flushing, NY 11355 for a refund.

Consumers with questions may contact SiewLee Wong by email at greatremedy68@gmail.com or by phone at 347-313-8605, Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Anyone experiencing health issues potentially related to the product should contact a physician immediately.

Adverse reactions may be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch program online at www.fda.gov/medwatch/report.htm.

The recall is being conducted with the knowledge of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
