As long as we're talking about cookies, packaged, flavored oat meal
manufactured by Malt-O-Meal with buy dates between June 30, 2009 and
October 28, 2010 has also been recalled.  These products are sold under
brands other than Malt-O-Meal; there is a milk plant in Plainview (or
Plainfield), Minn. where salmonilla was found.  The recall came out on
Independence Day, so some of you might have missed it.

I didn't send this before or to those of you with whom I'm in offlist
contact because I made a perhaps false assumption that you bake cookies
from scratch, especially you mothers. But the responses  I got from
others to whom I did send it even though I made the same assumption
about their baking habits causes me to deciude to send this to you just
to be safe.Cindy



Nestle recalls cookie dough products

By Steven Reinberg, HealthDay Reporter    FRIDAY,
June 19 (HealthDay News) -- U.S. health officials are warning
consumers
not to eat any Nestle Toll House refrigerated cookie dough products
because of the risk of E. coli contamination.  In
response to the Food and Drug Administration warning, Nestl and
eacute;
USA said Friday that it was voluntarily recalling its Toll House
refrigerated cookie dough items.  "The E.. coli outbreak
could be from one or a number of contaminates, such as the milk
component, the machinery, even the harvested flour," said one expert
in
infectious disease, Dr. Philip M. Tierno, director of clinical
microbiology and immunology at New York University Langone Medical
Center.  "Whether eaten or handled (causing
cross-contamination), the dough is a danger, especially to the
elderly,
anyone with a suppressed immune system or pregnant women and should be
discarded," he said.  Since March there have been 66 reports of
illness in 28 states, the agency said. Twenty-five people have been
hospitalized, seven with a severe complication called hemolytic uremic
syndrome, which can result in kidney damage and even death. There have
been no deaths, the FDA said.  The FDA is advising consumers to
toss out any refrigerated Nestl and eacute; Toll House cookie dough
products they have in their homes. The agency also says not to cook
the
dough because E. coli bacteria could get on your hands and cooking
surfaces, leading to cross-contamination.  Retailers,
restaurateurs, and other food-service operations should not sell or
serve any Nestle Toll House refrigerated cookie dough, the agency
added.  The
recall includes refrigerated cookie and brownie dough bar, cookie
dough
tub, cookie dough tubes, seasonal cookie and brownie dough, and
Ultimates cookie bar dough. It does not include any other Toll House
products, the company said in a news release.  Nestle
spokeswoman Roz O'Hearn said "this has been a very quickly moving
situation," adding that the company took action less than 24 hours
after hearing of the problem.  O'Hearn said the company will "cooperate
fully" with the FDA's investigation, the Associated Press reported.  E.
coli.
can cause abdominal cramps, vomiting and diarrhea, often with bloody
stools. Most healthy adults recover within a week. Young children and
the elderly are at highest risk for developing hemolytic uremic
syndrome, the FDA said.  More information
