Thrive Market announced the recall after one of their suppliers reported a positive test for Listeria in a recently-manufactured product.
The recall involves all nut butters manufactured after January 2018, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, tahini, coconut, and sunflower butter.
The recalled nut butters were distributed nationwide through Thrive Market’s e-commerce subscription service to its members, as well as other online retailers.
