Plain-English summary

Lidl US Trading is voluntarily recalling 200 units of Eridanous Greek Style Shortbread Cookies with apricot filling and cocoa topping with coconut sprinkles. The product is packed in a plastic carton tray with an outer paper sleeve and weighs 330 g. The specific lot number is 260315, and the best before date is 10/11/2026.

The recall was initiated because the firm discovered that certain units shipped to U.S. retail stores have labels containing only foreign languages. Consequently, the product does not declare the presence of wheat, soy, milk, eggs, and tree nut (coconut). These are common allergens that must be clearly identified on food labels for consumer safety.

The affected product was distributed to retail stores in the District of Columbia, Delaware, Georgia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia. Consumers who have purchased this product should check their labels for the specific lot number and best before date. If the product matches the description, consumers should not consume it and should return it to the place of purchase or dispose of it.
