Hannaford Bros. recalled Hannaford brand Mini Frosted Cookies, 10 oz in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Jun 15, 2012.

The product reached multiple states, recorded by the FDA as "NH, MA, ME, NY and VT." A multi-state footprint means the same lot can surface in households far from the producer. The recalling firm is based in Scarborough, ME. The recall covers 990 units of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Jul 11, 2012), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
