Giant Eagle Recalls Seasonal Cookies

Giant Eagle is recalling several kinds of seasonal cut-out shapes cookies due to undeclared milk allergen.

The cookies, produced in various holiday-themed shapes, were sold inside Giant Eagle and Market District supermarkets in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland and West Virginia through March 18.

Giant Eagle voluntarily recalled the cookies due to an undeclared milk allergen. But if you do not have a milk allergy, the cookies will not affect you.

The recalled cookies were sold individually in the bakery service case as well as in clear packages:

• 77993 90046        1 count seasonal cut-out cookie, 1 ounce
• 37973 00199        1 count decorated cut-out cookie, 2 ounces
• 17972 10298        2 count decorated cut-out cookies, 5 ounces
• 89685 80499        10 count cut-out cookies, 15 ounces
• 69748 80499        12 count cut-out cookies, 24 ounces.

Giant Eagle became aware of the issue when customers reported cases of illness associated with the cut-out cookies, which prompted further investigation.

Customers with a milk allergy with the recalled cookies should dispose of it or return it to their local Giant Eagle or Market District for a refund.

Customers with questions can call Giant Eagle Customer Care at 1-800-553-2324. The line is operated Monday through Friday from 9 a.m.-9 p.m.
