Granola bars recalled after consumer has reaction to undeclared milk

Juniper Granola LLC of Rochester, New York, is recalling Junebars Chocolate Cherry Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter Bars because they may contain undeclared milk and soy.

People who are allergic or sensitive to milk or soy are at risk of a serious or even fatal allergic reaction if they consume these products.

A customer reported an allergic reaction to milk, which is how Junebar became aware of the undeclared allergen and began an investigation.

The investigation says the problem was caused by an error in the company’s procurement process that resulted in a box of non-vegan chocolate chips, containing milk and soy, being included in production. Typically, Junebars are made with dairy-free and soy-free chips.

The bars were distributed in New York State in January through grocery retailers or via direct deliveries from website orders.

Affected bars can be identified by looking at the back of the bar pouch, near the bottom. Junebars Chocolate Cherry Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bars stamped with the label L1300, L1300A, L1300B or L1301A are included in the recall.
