FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – May 6th,
2011 – DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., May 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Ralcorp
Frozen Bakery Products, Inc. of Downers Grove, Illinois is
recalling Target Market Pantry Snickerdoodles Cookies marked by the
following lot code numbers:
110592W03
110933W03
110941W03
111152W03
111232W03
The lot code information can be found along the left side of the
label on the package itself.
These products contain undeclared whey (milk). People who have an
allergy or severe sensitivity to whey (milk) run the risk of
serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these
products. The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the
ingredient whey (milk) was not listed on the product label.
The recalled lot codes were distributed nationwide to Target retail
stores starting in March, 2011.
The product is packed in clear clamshells. The print on the label
says “Market Pantry Cookie Snickerdoodles” Net Wt 15 oz. (UPC
085239442074).
No illnesses have been reported to date. People who do not have
milk allergies or sensitivities can eat the product without
concern. The packaging does contain an allergy advisory statement
that states “may contain milk”, but we are issuing a voluntary
recall as a precaution.
No other Market Pantry cookie items are affected by this
recall.
Consumers may return the product to the store where it was
purchased for a refund. Consumers or media with questions should
contact Ralcorp at 1-888-421-4699 or contact Target Guest Relations
at 1-800-316-6151.
