The Girl Scout cookie supplier in our area, Little Brownie Bakers, has advised that some batches of Lemon Chalet Crème cookies may have an off taste and smell but are safe to eat.
Some of those cookies have been distributed in the Memphis council region.
Only one of the lot number codes were assigned to the Memphis area. If you have Lemon Chalet Cremes with this lot number of 7459402, then we will replace them at the Memphis Service Center.
Please remember that there is a large possibility that these cookies were not effected and are still "good" cookies. LBB wanted to make sure that their quality is maintained, so they are including the entire production week's worth of lot numbers in the voluntary recall.
Please assure your customers that the cookies are safe for consumers to eat, however they are not up to LBB's quality standards.
“These lots contain oils that may be breaking down, which can result in the off taste and smell,” says Don Davis, vice president and general manager of Little Brownie Bakers.
He reports that no other Girl Scout cookie varieties are involved. Cookies affected were distributed only from the Memphis warehouse. The Girl Scout service centers in Columbus, Corinth, Grenada, Tupelo or Jackson are not believed to have received any of the affected cookies.
Troop leaders, cookie volunteers and consumers may return cookies with the above-listed lot number code to the Memphis Cupboard at the Memphis Regional Service Center at 2715 Kirby Parkway, Suite 1, Memphis, TN 38119.
Little Brownie Bakers and Girl Scouts Heart of the South stress that the quality of their products is a top priority. Both organizations sincerely apologize to cookie customers who are affected by this situation.
