Goulibeur Shortbread Cookies Recalled for Missing Milk Allergen Labeling
Goulibeur is recalling 250 units of pure butter shortbreads sold in Maryland because the packaging lists butter but fails to identify milk as an allergen source.
What this means for you
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 for milk, a common allergen, which corresponds to the 'High' severity criterion in the rubric.
Plain-English summary
Goulibeur is recalling 250 units of Goulibeur 2 pure butter shortbreads in a freshness bag (Net weight 1.76 oz). The affected products have a batch number of 16493 and a best-by date of 08/15/2017. These items were distributed in Maryland.
The recall was initiated because the product packaging lists butter as an ingredient but does not indicate that the food source for this ingredient is milk. This omission means the presence of the milk allergen is not clearly disclosed in the list of ingredients.
Consumers who purchased these specific shortbread products should check their packaging for the batch number 16493 and best-by date of 08/15/2017. Individuals with a milk allergy or sensitivity should avoid consuming the product. The source text does not specify a contact method for refunds or further instructions.
