Plain-English summary
Bakers Of Paris, Inc. is voluntarily recalling approximately 799 croissants sold at Whole Foods Market in the Bay Area, California. The product was sold in self-service cases labeled "Croissant" (PLU 481976) or in clamshell packages of four (PLU 241593). The affected units were packed on or before August 16, 2016, and have a best-by date of August 18, 2016, or earlier.
The recall is being issued because the labeling for the croissants and chocolate croissants fails to declare egg in the ingredients list or allergen information. The source text notes that the croissants are manufactured with an egg wash, making the omission of egg from the allergen declaration a significant safety concern for individuals with egg allergies.
Consumers who purchased these croissants should check their pantries for the specific PLU codes and dates listed above. If the product is found, consumers should discard it or return it to the place of purchase. This recall is classified as FDA Class I, indicating a reasonable probability that the use of, or exposure to, the violative product may cause serious adverse health consequences or death.
