FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Miami, FL -- January 12, 2007 -- El Norteno Distributors of Miami, Fl, is recalling its 6 ounce packages of "BROWN CORN COOKIES (ROSQUETE DE MAIZ)" food treats because they may contain undeclared eggs. People who have allergies to eggs run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.
The recalled " BROWN CORN COOKIES (ROSQUETE DE MAIZ)" were distributed nationwide in retail stores and through mail orders.
The product comes in a 6 ounce, clear plastic bag with no lot codes.
