The recall affects President’s Choice English-Style Gingersnap Cookies (350 g). Consumers should check the packaging for UPC 0 60383 76819 5 and the best-before dates 2027 FE 08 or 2027 MR 14. Only products matching those details are included in the recall. If your package carries either of those dates, it’s worth checking before eating the cookies.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) recall was issued by Loblaw Companies Limited and is classified as a Class 2 recall. The agency advises consumers not to use, sell, serve, or distribute the affected cookies.
The recall notice does not mention any reported injuries, but it was issued over concerns that the product may contain pieces of metal wire, a potential hazard the recall is intended to address before anyone is harmed.
If you have these cookies at home, check the UPC and best-before date before eating them. Since cookies are often transferred into jars or containers, it’s possible to lose track of the original packaging. If you’ve already discarded the box and can’t confirm whether the product is affected, it’s safest not to consume it.
Consumers can find the full recall notice and any future updates on the Government of Canada’s recalls website.
