Hostess Brands, LLC has announced a voluntary recall of its Hostess® Cookies ‘n Crème Brownies due to the “Contains” statement not listing “egg” as an allergen. Although the ingredient list on the packaging identifies “egg” as an ingredient, the “Contains” statement, which is designed to further alert consumers of allergens in the products, does not include “egg”. As a result and out of an abundance of caution, Hostess Brands is voluntarily recalling the following Cookies ‘n Crème Brownies:
