Overview
- Beacon Promotions initiated the voluntary recall on January 26, and the FDA designated it Class II on February 4 with the action still ongoing.
- Two FDA enforcement notices cover more than 6,000 repackaged units: 541 units of Peanut M&M’s labeled “Make Your Mark” (lot M1823200, best by 4/30/2026) and 5,788 units of classic M&M’s tied to four lot codes and best‑by dates.
- The affected products were distributed to Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
- The issue stems from third‑party promotional repackaging that omitted required allergen disclosures, with items bearing labels for corporate and event clients such as Subaru, Adobe, Morgan Stanley, Dropbox DocSend and others.
- Authorities report no illnesses as of February 4 and advise that only people with relevant allergies should avoid or discard the recalled packs, while non‑allergic consumers do not need to take action.
