Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Gilster-Mary Lee Corp. is recalling 413 cases of Organic Microwave Butter Popcorn because the bags were accidentally packaged in boxes labeled as 'Organic Salted Popcorn.' This mistake means the product contains milk, which is not listed on the outer packaging. The affected popcorn was distributed in 8.7-ounce cartons through Topco Associates LLC to distribution centers in several states, including AZ, CA, CT, MI, MN, NH, NY, PA, and UT. If you have this product, you should return it to the store where you bought it for a full refund.

Risk

The product contains milk, a known allergen, which was not declared on the Salted Popcorn boxes. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk run the risk of a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your pantry for 8.7-ounce cartons of Organic Microwave Popcorn labeled as 'Salted' but containing 'Butter' flavor bags inside.
  2. Verify the identifying codes on the packaging: Look for UPC 0 36800 40611 7 and the specific Lot code APR0922N2 with a 'Best By' date of APR 09 22.
  3. If you have the affected product and someone in your household has a milk allergy or sensitivity, do not consume it.
  4. Return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund or contact Gilster-Mary Lee Corp. for further instructions.
