Keebler Cookie Dough Minis, 150 ct., 2.5 oz.

Kellogg Company recalled Keebler Cookie Dough Minis, 150 ct., 2.5 oz. in a Class II action, the FDA tier for products that may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects on Jun 13, 2016.

The FDA listed the reason as an undeclared allergen: "Kellogg Company initiated a voluntary recall of multiple snack food items because of the potential for undeclared allergen peanut due to a supplier's recall of flour." Allergen mislabeling is the leading cause of U.S. food recalls, because a missing declaration can trigger a reaction in someone who reads the label and believes the product is safe.

The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Jul 27, 2016), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved.
