Fly By Jing has voluntarily recalled select lots of its Creamy Sesame Noodles after a potential peanut contamination was found in packages distributed nationwide. Federal regulators said Tuesday that people with peanut allergies could face a serious or life-threatening reaction if they eat the affected instant noodle products.
The recall covers single and four-pack containers with lot codes 8-50052-23988-6 and 8-50052-23991-6, with best-by dates of Oct. 15, 2026, Dec. 6, 2026, and March 23, 2027. The affected products were distributed to retailers between Feb. 1, 2026, and May 8, 2026, and were sold through the company’s website and retail stores including Whole Foods Market and Thrive Market. The company said the items may also have been sold on TikTok.
Fly By Jing said it found that a third-party manufacturer had used shared equipment that also processes peanuts under conditions that could pose a health risk for people with peanut allergies. The company said it immediately stopped distribution, notified customers and retail partners, and placed all remaining inventory on hold. It is offering full refunds, with customers able to return products to their retailer for a refund; people who bought the noodles through the company’s website or TikTok Shop will be contacted directly.
The recall adds to growing scrutiny of allergen controls in outsourced food production, where a product can move from a vegan label to a contamination warning because of what happens on shared equipment far from the brand’s own kitchens. Fly By Jing described the noodles as a protein-packed vegan product, and said it has now implemented stricter allergen controls with its third-party manufacturer to prevent a repeat.
In a statement, the company said it takes food quality and safety seriously and is deeply sorry for the concern the recall may cause, adding that it is committed to making it right for every customer. For shoppers with peanut allergies, the bottom line is immediate: do not eat the recalled noodles, and seek a refund instead.
