Giant Eagle Lotsa Chocolate Chip Cookies recall

Recalled by Giant Eagle · Pittsburgh, PA, United States

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

Why it was recalled

Labels do not accurately state ingredients/nutrition facts/allergens. An incorrect label was placed on this product that does not declare soy lecithin while the actual product contains soy lecithin.

Undeclared allergen: Soy

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.

FDA's distribution note: Product was distributed to Giant Eagle Stores in MD, OH, PA and WV.

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 soy; 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.
