In a startling announcement, Tony's Chocolonely is recalling several batches of their popular chocolate bars after potential contamination with small stones was reported. The company, known for its commitment to ethical chocolate production, has indicated that this issue arose from almonds that were not adequately filtered during the third-party harvesting and processing stages.

The recall affects seven lots of the Tony's Dark Almond Sea Salt Bar and the Everything Bar, distributed widely across the United States. Shoppers have reported unsettling incidents of discovering these foreign objects in their chocolate bars, prompting immediate action from the company.
