Company Announcement

Five Whole Foods Market stores in Northern California are voluntarily recalling frosted Pumpkin Drop cookies because the products contained tree nut allergens (walnuts) that were not listed on the product label. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to walnuts run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reactions if they consume these products.

All affected products have been removed from store shelves. The cookies are round with a dollop of off-white frosting. They were sold in clear plastic packages and can be identified by the PLU number 024767. The products were sold between October 19 and October 26, 2017. One reaction has been reported to date.

The cookies were sold in the following locations in Northern California:

  • 3000 Telegraph Avenue, Berkeley, CA
  • 390 Coddingtown Mall, Santa Rosa, CA
  • 3502 Mt Diablo Boulevard, Lafayette, CA
  • 450 Rhode Island Street, San Francisco, CA
  • 1333 Newell Avenue, Walnut Creek, CA

Customers who purchased these products at Whole Foods Market can bring a valid receipt into stores for a full refund. Consumers with additional questions can call 1-844-936-8255 between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. CST, Monday through Friday, or 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. CST Saturday through Sunday.
