Cesarina sesame seed cookies omit sesame from the contains statement

Cesarina Sesame Seed Cookies, 16 oz, are being recalled because sesame is not listed in the Contains statement. 40 cases are affected.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class III recall where the allergen is named in the product title itself and only the Contains statement omits it, which the rubric places in the labeling-error band.
