Bimbo Bakeries USA, Inc. has recalled Entenmann’s Little Bites Soft Baked cookies (5 pack Mini Chocolate Chip variety) due to the potential presence of visible, blue plastic pieces in the individual packaging pouch.

The company says the plastic is not baked into the product as it was introduced during the packaging process.  However, consumption of the plastic pieces may result in a choking hazard.  Entenmann’s Little Bites cookies are made on a dedicated production line, so no Little Bites Muffins or other Entenmann’s brand products are affected.

The product being recalled has “Best By” date, UPC and Lot code and was distributed in the states listed below. The Best By Date can be found on the top of the box, the Lot Code is to the left of the top of the box underneath the price/lb. The UPC Code can be found in the lower right-hand corner on the back of the box.

The company announced the recall after receiving consumer reports of visible, blue plastic pieces found on or packaged with the product. There are no reports of injury to date. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was notified of the recall.

All recalled products are being removed from store shelves.  Consumers who have purchased the cookies should not consume the product and can return the package to its place of purchase for a full refund.
