NJ's Manischewitz issues recall of dark chocolate coins
NEW JERSEY (WABC) -- We're just days away from Hanukkah starting this Thursday at sunset, and there's a popular holiday treat being recalled.
New Jersey-based Manischewitz has issued the recall of their dark chocolate coins, also known as gelt.
According to the FDA, some of the coins may contain undeclared milk as an ingredient, which poses a potential danger to people with allergies.
People who keep kosher may also be unable to eat the coins if they contain dairy.
Normally the versions with milk chocolate come wrapped in gold foil and blue netting.
The dark chocolate coins come in a silver foil with red netting.
The coins were distributed nationwide, many in the Tri-State area.
The affected packages have a lot number of 2283.
If you've already purchased the coins, you can return them for credit or a refund.
