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 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The agency classified this recall as Class I — a situation in which there is a reasonable probability that the use of or exposure to a violative product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death. On that classification alone this is scored Severe; a score of Critical is reserved for recalls where a death or serious injury was reported. The agency gives the reason as: "Chocolate Chip Cookies are recalled because cookies may contain undeclared peanuts."

Plain-English summary

Marsee Foods Inc is recalling 96 cases of Cafe YUMM! Chocolate Chip Cookies because the product may contain undeclared peanuts. The cookies are packaged in shrink-wrapped master cases, each containing two boxes of 24 cookies. The affected products were distributed in Oregon and Washington and sold at Cafe Yumm! restaurants, where they were served as either chocolate-dipped or undipped versions for dine-in guests or take-out orders.

The recall involves master cases with lot codes 200, 201, 202, 203, or 204. Manufacturing dates on the master cases range from 08 06 to 08 15. Individual cookies and 24-count boxes do not have labels or dates, so tracking information is only available on the master cases before they are opened by the restaurants.

Consumers who have purchased these cookies should stop eating them and return them to the place of purchase or dispose of them. Individuals with a peanut allergy should be particularly cautious, as the presence of undeclared peanuts poses a serious health risk.
