First Source of Pico Rivera, CA, is recalling Tasty Treats Nonpareils Milk Chocolate because it contains undeclared milk.  People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to Milk run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product.

The recalled item was distributed in the state of California through Bristol Farms retail stores.

The Product is sold in a 5oz size plastic pouch containing round chocolate discs with colorful sprinkles (nonpareils)  with a green paper label at top that states Tasty Treats, Nonpareils Milk Chocolate Bristol Farms with UPC 7 97299 00476 4 distributed between 12/20/2016 and 9/20/2017.

One illness/allergic reaction has been reported to date.

The recall was initiated after it was discovered that product containing Milk was distributed in packaging that contained the incorrect ingredient statement which did not reveal the presence of Milk. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the company's label review process.

Consumers who have purchased this item are urged to destroy the product.  Consumers with questions may contact First Source at 1-716-389-0264, Monday – Friday, 8am - 5pm, EST.
