Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Texamerican Food Blending received notification from its supplier that two lots of ingredients were contaminated with Peanut allergen. The products affected do not have peanuts listed in the ingredient statement. All product items listed have a cleanout after mixing. The firm current corrective action in regard to receiving this ingredient is to discontinue ordering ingredient from Schiff Foods

Food allergen labelling is required by US law for the nine major allergens. A product recalled for an undeclared allergen is only a risk to people with that allergy; everyone else can consume it safely.
