It is interesting that there has been a recall notice in Canada.  I'm a news junkie and haven't read a thing about this, so thank you.

From the recall notice:

Quote

This recall is limited exclusively to this Oreo Fudge Cremes product, Original and Mint varieties, sold in the U.S., including the U.S. Territories of Puerto Rico, St. Croix and St. Thomas, and no other products are included in this recall.

This is a labeling issue where it appears that some milk or milk product is present in these 2 specific Oreo products but does not appear on the label so this would be of concern to individuals with severe milk allergies.  One allergic response has been reported.

Anyone who ordinarily dips their Oreos in a glass of cold milk should not be affected.

 Edited to add:  It's curious that the "best consumed by" dates on all lots of affected product is now past.

The recall I was referring to was for Mr. Christie, not Oreos.  I should have been clearer.
