Peanut Butter Cookies Packaged as Oatmeal Cookies Recalled Due to Undeclared Peanut

Albertsons Companies has voluntarily recalled 18-count packages of Oatmeal Cookies that were sold at the Safeway grocery store at 14020 Main Street, Duvall, Wash. between April 5 to April 17, 2023. We have received a report that a package of cookies was labeled as Oatmeal Raisin but may have contained Peanut Butter Cookies. As a result, peanuts and soy were not listed within the ingredient statement.

Note...the label does have a precautionary statement that includes peanuts, but it does not prevent having to conduct a recall due to undeclared peanuts.
