What happened

Who is at risk

People with milk allergies or those who avoid milk for religious or dietary reasons are at risk, since the product wasn't properly labeled as containing milk.

What to do

If you purchased this product in 1.1 LB or 2.7 LB plastic bottles, stop using it, especially if you have a milk allergy. Contact the manufacturer or retailer for a refund, or dispose of it safely.
