These cookies were shipped to Alabama, California, Georgia, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania in boxes bearing the Byrd's Famous Cookies brand name. Consumers should check their packaging for specific lot codes ending in AX or BX with Best By dates in December 2018.
The product contains the undeclared color additives Red 40 and Red 3. This poses a risk to consumers who may have sensitivities or specific dietary restrictions regarding these artificial dyes, as their presence is not disclosed on the packaging.
