Food Recall Check
Class II · Moderate risk Terminated Initiated Mar 12, 2018 (9 years ago)

Name: Trader Joe s Chocolate Chip Cookies recall

Recalled by Food and Beverage Inc. · Teterboro, NJ, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

Food & Beverage Inc., dba Chris's Cookies has initiated a recall of Trader Joe s Peanut Butter Sutter s Formula Cookies (Trader Joes SKU 93307) that was packed in a Trader Joes branded Chocolate Chip Cookie bag, and sent out as Chocolate Chip Cookies. Please note the Chocolate Chip Cookie bag has a statement on the back that says: MAY CONTAIN TRACES OF PEANUTS AND TREE NUTS , but since the wrong product packed is based almost completely in peanut this could represent a bigger risk for those who have peanuts allergies. Thus, prompting the firm to error on the side of public safety and initiate a recall.

Undeclared allergens: Peanut Tree nuts

For someone with a food allergy the label is the only protection. An undeclared allergen can trigger a severe reaction even in a trace amount, which is why most of these recalls are Class I. All undeclared allergens recalls.

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. The risk from an undeclared allergen is to people allergic to peanut, tree nuts; for anyone else the product is generally not a safety concern. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
