Important Allergy Alert: Undeclared Soy in Popular Cookie Dough Product
Allergy Alert: Undeclared Soy in Bakr Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookie Dough
Bear Stewart LLC, based in Chicago, IL, has voluntarily initiated a recall of a specific batch of their Bakr Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk Ready To Bake Cookie Dough. This decision came after it was revealed that the product may contain undeclared soy, which poses serious health risks for individuals with soy allergies or sensitivities. The consumers affected potentially face severe or life-threatening allergic reactions if they consume this cookie dough.
Details of the Recall
The recall affects only a single lot of the cookie dough, distributed in various retail locations across Southern California, Southern Nevada, Arizona, and Utah. These products were available at Target stores starting from June 11, 2026. Consumers should be aware that the Bakr Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk is packaged in an 8-ounce blue pouch located in the frozen section of stores. The lot number associated with the recall is 2606022, printed on the bottom left corner on the back side of the pouch.
To date, there have been no reported illnesses linked to the consumption of the affected cookie dough. The problem arose when it was discovered that packages containing S'mores cookie dough were inadvertently mixed and packed into the wrong pouches, causing the undeclared soy to be an unexpected ingredient in the Bakr Brown Butter Chocolate Chunk cookies.
