HERSHEY, Pa. (CBS) -- Hershey is recalling some of its bottles of chocolate shell topping over allergy concerns. The company says 1,700 of the 7.25-ounce bottles were mistakenly filled with Heath Shell Topping, which contains almonds.

"People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to almonds run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products," Hershey said in an FDA recall notice.

The recalled bottles were shipped nationwide this spring between April 15 and May 3 with product code 25JSAS1. They are being pulled from store shelves.
