IMMEDIATE ACTION NECESSARY
Please be aware that receipt of this communication is NOT confirmation that you have received affected product. This

THIS PRODUCT IS NOT A REPORTABLE FOOD.
Sysco Quality Assurance received notification that KELLOGG COMPANY is conducting a voluntary product RECALL of limited
dates of production of graham crackers and cookies.
Kellogg Company is voluntarily recalling certain varieties and limited dates of production of Keebler®, graham crackers and
cookies because they may contain undeclared peanut residue. Kellogg initiated the recall after its supplier, Grain Craft, recalled
wheat flour that has the potential to contain low levels of peanut residue.
While consumers with severe peanut allergies should avoid the recalled products, the FDA has stated that the amount of peanut
exposure from the flour is low and not expected to cause adverse health effects in the vast majority of peanut allergic consumers.
The company has received no reports of related illness to date and is taking this action out of an abundance of caution.
