UPDATED: Allergy Alert - Undeclared Milk in Five Kinnikinnick Foods Products

Kinnikinnick Foods of 10940 120 Street, Edmonton, AB is expanding previous recalls of January 10 & 15th.

Kinnikinnick has determined that an ingredient used in the production of these products contained MILK allergens that were not listed by the manufacturer of that ingredient and may be present in these finished products. MILK is not declared on the packaging of these 5 Kinnikinnick products. Routine testing by Kinnikinnick discovered this MILK contamination in a specific lot of an ingredient which was certified by the manufacturer to contain no MILK allergens. The distributor of this ingredient in Canada, Burnbrae Farms, has currently recalled 4 lots of this ingredient and several additional lots are under investigation.

We are voluntarily recalling all lots produced up to and including the Best Before dates indicated below which contained the ingredient.

Lots produced after the listed Best Before dates do not use this ingredient and are not a part of this recall.

Affected Products

A complete list of affected Best Before dates is available at www.kinnikinnick.com

Best before dates are embossed on the top flap of the box, applied with an ink jet printer on the side or as an applied label to the bottom of the box.

The products are distributed across Canada and the United States in retail stores and through direct shipments.

This may cause a serious or life-threatening reaction in persons with allergies to MILK. Consumers who are allergic to MILK should dispose of or return the product to point of sale for a refund.

Consumers WITHOUT allergies to MILK may continue to consume these products.

There have been no reported illnesses associated with this recall.
