A batch of chocolate chip cookies has been taken off the shelves due to potential health risks for those with milk allergies or sensitivities.
Too Good Gourmet, located in San Lorenzo, California, has issued a recall for their Meijer Dunking Cookies Chocolate Chip because the product contains undeclared milk.
The affected cookies were available at Meijer stores across Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, and Wisconsin. In their recall announcement on Friday, Too Good Gourmet stated that the omission of milk from the ingredient list was unintentional, and Meijer has been informed.
Fortunately, neither Too Good Gourmet nor Meijer has reported any customer complaints or illnesses related to this recall so far, as confirmed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The cookies were sold in a 10-ounce transparent container with a blue and white label, bearing the UPC 713733712972. All best-by dates are included in this recall.
If you’ve purchased these cookies, please stop consuming them and return the product to any Meijer customer service desk for a full refund.
For more details, you can contact Meijer at 800-543-3704 between 7 a.m. and 1 a.m. EDT daily or reach out to Too Good Gourmet at 510-317-8150 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST on weekdays.
If you have any health concerns or questions, it’s best to consult your primary care provider.
