Cheesecake sold at Target in five states recalled due to undeclared tree nut allergen
A popular cheesecake sold at Target has been recalled due to an undeclared ingredient.
In a press release on Wednesday, Dessert Holdings LLC announced that it was recalling a Target brand cheesecake. The product is Favorite Day's New York Style Cheesecake, sold in a six-ounce container with two slices of cake.
The cheesecake was recalled due to mislabeled packaging, resulting in undeclared pecans in the products. Customers who 'have an allergy or severe sensitivity to pecans run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions,' if they consume this cheesecake, as noted in the press release.
Dessert Holdings LLC received a customer complaint on March 14 about the product containing pecans, even though that wasn't declared on the label. The labeling issue has now been resolved and 'no other manufacturing dates or lots are impacted.'
There have not been any reported illnesses due to the product, as of March 21.
The impacted product was distributed between February 14 and March 7. They have the Lot code 25028A1 000039133, printed on the side of the plastic packaging, and UPC of 0 85239 09690 1.
Recalled cheesecakes were sent to Target Distribution Centers in California, Florida, Iowa, Ohio, and Texas. The product was sold at Target stores in these states.
Customers who have the Target brand cheesecake should not consume it. They can also contact Target Guest Relations for a full refund.
Dessert Holdings LLC's announcement comes days after Nestlé U.S. issued a voluntary recall on a limited supply of its Stouffer's and Lean Cuisine meals due to the potential presence of 'wood-like material.' The food conglomerate said the recalled products had been distributed 'at major retailers' between September 2024 and March 2025.
The recalled meals include the following meals made between August 2024 and March 2025: Lean Cuisine Butternut Squash Ravioli, Lean Cuisine Spinach Artichoke Ravioli, Lean Cuisine Lemon Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry, and Stouffer's Party Size Chicken Lasagna.
Nestlé said the company launched an investigation after consumers contacted them to report multiple issues — one involving a potential choking incident.
Earlier this month, Savage Pet also became the latest pet food brand to recall some of its cat food products due to the possibility that it is contaminated with bird flu.
The recall extended to 66 of the company's 84-oz boxes and 74 small, 21-oz boxes. Each item had a best-by date of November 15, 2026. These boxes were distributed to retailers across California, Colorado, New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington.
Pet owners who may have fed the food to their cats should monitor their animals for symptoms of the bird flu, also known as Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1.
According to the FDA, bird flu symptoms include 'fever, lethargy, low appetite, reddened or inflamed eyes, discharge from the eyes and nose, difficulty breathing, and neurological signs like tremors, stiff body movements, seizure, lack of coordination, or blindness.'

Best Stock to Buy Right Now: Target vs. RH
Target is struggling with weak sales, sending its shares sharply lower in 2025. RH's earnings outlook has been clouded by the looming impact of tariffs on its imported high-end home furnishings. One of these retail stocks may be poised to rebound in the second half of the year. 10 stocks we like better than RH › It's a matchup between two consumer goods retailers navigating a turbulent economic landscape. As of this writing, shares of Target (NYSE: TGT) are down 31% year to date amid disappointing sales. RH (NYSE: RH) stock has also missed the mark, falling 58% in 2025, facing concerns that its supply chain of imported high-end furniture and subsequent earnings outlook is exposed to new U.S. trade tariffs. Despite headwinds, Target and RH remain industry leaders, offering reasons for investor optimism about a potential turnaround. Could their recent stock price declines present a compelling buy-the-dip opportunity? Let's explore whether Target or RH is the best stock to buy now. Target stands out among its discount retail industry competitors, such as Walmart or Dollar General, by offering a more elevated in-store shopping experience. The retailer blends affordability with a curated assortment of merchandise, including a growing portfolio of private-label brands, attracting a loyal customer base. On the other hand, Target is facing a historically challenging period into 2025, with core shoppers cutting discretionary spending due to economic uncertainty. In the first quarter (ended April 30), net sales declined by 2.8% year over year, while adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.30 marked a 36% decline from last year, and missed the consensus Wall Street estimate of $1.61. Management cited soft in-store demand and some early tariff-related cost pressures. The headline numbers lack confidence, but investors should focus on the bigger picture. Target has been ramping up promotional efforts with a shifting sales mix, offering lower-price point items to appeal to more value-conscious shoppers and drive store traffic. The company's digital strategy has been a bright spot, with e-commerce sales growing 4.7% from the prior-year quarter. Even with Target guiding for a low-single-digit decline in net sales this year, the business remains profitable, with a 2025 adjusted EPS target between $7 and $9. That's great news for investors thinking about the sustainability of Target's $1.12-per-share quarterly dividend, now yielding 4.8%, which is further supported by a solid balance sheet. In contrast, RH doesn't pay a regular dividend. With shares trading at just 12 times its 2025 projected EPS as a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, Target also offers good value next to RH, trading at a forward P/E of 16. Investors seeking high-yield portfolio income have a strong argument that Target is the better retail stock to buy today. RH is a category leader in premium home furnishings, offering luxury furniture and design services through its upscale galleries and membership model. The company benefits from strong brand recognition and a reputation for high-quality products. However, those goods, primarily sourced from Asia, make RH vulnerable to tariffs on imports. When the levies were first announced back in April, RH stock plunged by 40% in a single day. In response, RH issued a statement noting its efforts to diversify its supply chain and projecting optimism toward its long-term growth potential. While Wall Street analyst estimates for RH earnings this year have been revised lower in recent months, what hasn't changed is the underlying customer demand and growth momentum. RH capped off its fiscal 2024 fourth quarter (ended Feb. 1) with comparable net revenue growth of 18% year over year, alongside a 21% increase in EPS compared to the prior-year quarter. The expectation is for revenue to climb by 11% in 2025, with that outlook helping to justify RH's valuation premium next to Target. If tariff uncertainties resolve soon, possibly via trade negotiations, RH stock could rebound sharply. Investors who believe RH will emerge stronger and still on track for significant long-term growth as it expands internationally could consider buying the stock now. As tempting as Target's dividend yield is, I believe RH stock is the better buy today, since it may have more upside as its operating and financial conditions normalize. What I like about RH is that the company is unique in its scale and specialization within luxury home furnishings, while Target faces more intense direct competition. From its beaten-down price level, I predict shares of RH will outperform, led by its continued strong growth, making it a solid addition to diversified portfolios.

Job growth expected to have slowed in May as Trump's tariffs fluctuated
A jobs report to be released on Friday will show whether the resilient labor market continued to defy business uncertainty and recession concerns stoked by President Donald Trump's tariffs. The fresh data, which details hiring in May, is set to reveal the performance of a key measure of economic health as Trump rolled back some of the "Liberation Day" tariffs imposed a month earlier. Economists expect the U.S. to have added 125,000 jobs in May, which would amount to solid job growth, albeit a marked slowdown from 177,000 jobs added a month prior. MORE: 'Danger zone': Top companies weather uncertainty as Trump's tariffs fluctuate The expected job growth in May would come in below the average of 157,000 jobs added over the previous 12 months. A trade agreement between the U.S. and China in May slashed tit-for-tat tariffs between the world's two largest economies and triggered a surge in the stock market. Within days, Wall Street firms softened their forecasts of a downturn. The U.S.-China accord came weeks after the White House paused a large swath of Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs targeting dozens of countries. Trump also eased sector-specific tariffs targeting autos and rolled back duties on some goods from Mexico and Canada. Still, an across-the-board 10% tariff applies to nearly all imports, except for semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and some other items. Those levies come on top of specialized tariffs on steel, aluminum and autos. China, the third-largest U.S. trade partner, faces 30% tariffs. A slew of major companies as far-flung as Pepsi, Goldman Sachs and Target have warned that they may suffer losses due to uncertainty tied to the on-again, off-again tariffs. Nationwide retailers like Walmart and Best Buy have also voiced alarm of potential price increases as a result of the levies. Consumer spending, which accounts for about two-thirds of U.S. economic activity, could weaken if shopper appetites diminish in the face of costly imports. In theory, a slowdown in spending could hammer some companies and trigger layoffs. MORE: 'CRAZY': Trump and Musk feud erupts on social media So far, however, key measures of the economy have largely defied fears of a downturn. The unemployment rate stands at a historically low level and job growth remains robust, though it has slowed from previous highs. In recent months, inflation has cooled, reaching its lowest level since 2021. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, or OECD, this week forecast continued growth for the U.S. economy in 2025 and 2026, albeit at a slower pace than last year.
