Surtidoras Bakery Recalls Kid's Rainbow Cookies for Allergen Labeling Error

Surtidoras Bakery is recalling 50 packages of Kid's Rainbow Cookies because the packaging failed to declare coconut as an allergen in the 'Contains' statement.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Food): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves allergen mislabeling (coconut) on a common food product, which corresponds to the 'High' severity criterion in the rubric for allergen mislabeling without reported illness.

Plain-English summary

Surtidoras Bakery Inc is recalling 50 packages of Kid's Rainbow Cookies, net weight 15.52 oz. The product is packaged in a rigid plastic clamshell container and has a 'Sell By' date of 03/30/19. The cookies were distributed in Washington state.

The recall was initiated because the product's 'Contains' statement failed to declare coconut as an allergen, despite coconut oil being listed in the ingredients statement. The ingredients statement correctly declared wheat, soybean oil, milk, soy lecithin, eggs, and coconut oil, but the 'Contains' statement only listed wheat, milk, soy, and eggs.

Consumers who purchased these cookies should check their packaging for the specific 'Sell By' date and the absence of coconut in the 'Contains' statement. Individuals with a coconut allergy should avoid consuming the product. The recall is classified as FDA Class II.
