From morning coffee to vitamins, there are plenty of must-have's that help set up a successful daily routine. In fact, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine, a whopping 50% of American adults take a multivitamin, vitamin or mineral supplement regularly.

Considering these Welby, Berkley Jensen and VitaGlobe vitamins are also sold by some of the most popular retailers like ALDI and Amazon, there's a good chance shoppers may unknowingly have a bottle.
According to a company announcement shared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, this recall affects one lot of Aldi Welby B12 Energy Support gummies, Berkely Jensen B12 Vitamin gummies and Vitamin B12 Extra Strength gummies. The FDA warns that 'people with an allergy or severe sensitivity to peanuts run the potential risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions,' if they take these no illnesses or allergic reactions have been reported so far. The undeclared peanuts were actually discovered by ALDI. After conducting routine testing per its standard protocol, one of the tests 'indicated a potential presence of a peanut allergen.'
While internal testing done by Vita Warehouse Corp. 'verified the absence of peanuts," the recall was issued out of caution.
So, how do you know for sure if you have one of the affected vitamins? There are a few key ways.
First, these were sold nationwide at ALDI and BJ's in-store. They were also sold online on ALDI's, BJ's and VitaGlobe's websites and on Amazon.
Additionally, each product will have an expiration date of October 2026. The company says that each of the affected vitamins have the following UPC codes and Lot numbers.
Aldi Welby: clear bottle with white cap, using green, red, and white labeling. UPC Code: 4099100290868 Lot #: 248046601*
Berkeley Jensen: clear bottle with white cap, using red and pink labeling. UPC Code: 888670132487 Lot #: 248046601*
VitaGlobe: clear bottle with white cap, using white and red labeling. UPC Code: 850005214670 Lot #: 248046601*
The Lot codes and expiration dates can all be found printed on the bottom of each bottle.
The FDA urges consumers who have a peanut allergy to return or throw away any affected vitamins ASAP. Customers who do return them can expect a full refund from the original store of purchase.
