Trader Joe’s of
Monrovia, California is voluntarily recalling all codes of Trader Joe’s

Sticks (UPC 00847122) because the products may contain more than the stated
“traces of milk” on the label. All affected product has been removed
from store shelves. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk
run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume
these products.

Trader Joe’s Chocolate
Orange Sticks and Trader Joe’s Chocolate Raspberry Sticks are packaged in an 18
oz. clear tub. The products were distributed to Trader Joe’s stores nationwide.
Trader Joe’s initiated the voluntary removal of these products after noticing
the chocolate coating appeared lighter in color than expected. Two allergic
reactions have been reported to date.

purchased the Trader Joe’s Chocolate Orange Sticks and/or Trader Joe’s
Chocolate Raspberry Sticks may return them to Trader Joe’s for a full refund.
