The recalled products reached stores throughout Hawaii, including CVS Longs, Don Quijote, Navy Exchange, Target, Times Supermarkets, and Walmart. The company also directly sold the cookie products to consumers through mail order.

The products come in either a 5.3-ounce or 17.7-ounce package with a “best by” date between Sept. 12, 2024, and Aug. 7, 2025, stamped at the top of the bag. DOH states in a news release that “repacking of the product has begun with accurate labels on the product bag and on individual cookie wrappers.” The Food and Drug Branch is following up with local stores to ensure that the recalled products are no longer available for sale.

People with an allergy or high sensitivity to milk could risk a serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume or are exposed to the product per the DOH.

Symptoms include runny nose, skin reactions such as hives or swelling, itching or tingling in or around the mouth and throat, digestive issues such as diarrhea, stomach cramps, nausea and/or vomiting, and/or signs of asthma such as coughing, wheezing, chest lightness or shortness of breath.

Milk allergies can cause anaphylaxis, a reaction that narrows the airway and can block breathing. Symptoms include swelling or tightening of the throat, severe drop in blood pressure, increased heart rate, chest pain or tightness, rapid pulse, shock, severe difficulty breathing, trouble swallowing, pale blue skin color, and/or dizziness or fainting.

DOH advises anyone who has consumed the recalled products to contact your health care provider. If you experience signs of anaphylaxis, administer an epinephrine autoinjector and call 911 as anaphylaxis is a medical emergency that requires immediate care.

To date, there have been no reports of illness attributed to the products per DOH.

Consumers can return purchased recalled products to the place of purchase for a full refund. Contact KTM Services, Inc. at 808-845-8089 for additional information.
