Michel et Augustin
Inc. of Brooklyn, NY, is recalling approximately 900 packages of its Petites
baguettes butter cookies Dark Chocolate, 6 packs only, because they may contain
undeclared hazelnuts. People who have an allergy to hazelnuts run the risk of
serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product.
Michel et Augustin
Petites baguettes butter cookies Dark Chocolate were distributed to retail
stores throughout New York City.
The product is
packaged in a sealed polypropylene film inside a cardboard box (6 cookies per
box), NET WT. 1.58 oz., UPC 812668020166, with a Best before date 07 2016
(located on back of the package).
No illnesses or
complaints have been reported to date.
The recall was
initiated after the firm discovered packages that had visible pieces of nuts on
top of the butter cookies. Subsequent investigation by the firm and foreign
manufacturer revealed that a small quantity of packages of the milk chocolate
and hazelnut recipe were incorrectly packed into Dark chocolate packages, and
hazelnuts are not listed on the label.
Consumers who have
purchased Michel et Augustin Petites baguettes butter cookies Dark Chocolate, 6
packs, with Best before date 07 2016 and are allergic to hazelnuts should not
consume this product. Consumers are urged to return the product to the place of
purchase for a full refund. Consumers with questions should contact the company
at 1-646-820-0935, Monday - Friday, 9 am - 6 pm, EDT.
