Gregory’s Foods Issues FDA Recall of “Bag Full of Cookies” Dough for Undeclared Peanuts
Important notice for people with peanut allergies: Gregory’s Foods has recalled select 2 lb 8.5 oz bags of “Bag Full of Cookies” White Chocolate Macadamia Nut frozen cookie dough after discovering that some packages actually contain Monster Cookie dough made with peanuts. If you bought this product in Minnesota, Wisconsin, or Nebraska, do not eat it—return it to the store for a full refund.
Why Gregory’s Foods issued the cookie dough recall
A limited number of peanut-containing Monster Cookie Dough units were accidentally packed into bags labeled as White Chocolate Macadamia Nut. Because peanuts are a major allergen, U.S. law requires them to be declared on the label. Eating the mis-labeled dough could cause a severe or life-threatening allergic reaction in sensitive individuals.
