Nelsons’ Chocofellar Dark Chocolate Candies are being recalled in Canada because they may contain milk, one of the major food allergens, that is not listed on the label. Anyone who is allergic to or sensitive to milk, or who is lactose intolerant, could have a serious reaction if they eat these candies. This is an expansion of two previous recalls: one for 60% Dark Chocolate with Hazelnuts, and one for Dark Chocolate Bars. No illnesses have been reported to the company to date. The recalling firm is Nelson’s Chocofellar.
These recalled products were sold in British Columbia at the retail level and were also sold online. They are all Nelson’s Chocofellar brand, and all codes where milk is not declared on the label are included in the recall. You can see pictures of the recalled items at the CFIA web page.
