Cookie Dough Recall: Peanut Allergy Risk Escalated
22 Jan
Summary
- Frozen cookie dough recalled due to undeclared peanuts.
- Packages labeled White Chocolate Macadamia Nut contain peanuts.
- Recall is FDA's highest risk classification, Class I.
A significant recall has been issued for Gregory's Foods' "Bag Full of Cookies" White Chocolate Macadamia Nut frozen cookie dough. This action stems from the accidental inclusion of Monster Cookie Dough, which contains undeclared peanuts, in packages incorrectly labeled.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has designated this recall as Class I, signifying the highest risk level. This classification indicates a reasonable probability that consumption of the mislabeled product could lead to serious adverse health consequences or even death, particularly for individuals with peanut allergies.
The affected products were distributed to grocery stores across Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, and Nebraska. The error, which involved approximately 308 cases, was limited to a single day's production and has since been rectified by the company.
Consumers possessing the recalled cookie dough are strongly advised against consumption. They should return the product to the point of purchase for a complete refund. Gregory's Foods has provided a contact number for consumer inquiries regarding the recall.
