Those people stocking up early for their Halloween treat baskets should be careful and check their candy again.
Georgia Commissioner of Agriculture Tommy Irvin is alerting consumers to the recall of White Rabbit Candy that may be contaminated with melamine.
The product, manufactured by QFCO, Inc., Burlingame, Calif., was distributed to Georgia, California, Hawaii, Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Texas, and Washington through wholesale distributors to retail stores.
White Rabbit Creamy Candy is sold in 8 or 16 oz packages. All other flavors of White Rabbit Candy, including assorted (chocolate, coconut, and coffee), Red Bean, Coffee, Corn, Lychee, Mango and Strawberry are sold in 7 oz. packages. All packaging has a white rabbit logo on the front with the words "White Rabbit."
The recall was initiated after it was discovered that the product was contaminated with melamine.
"Sanitarians will be checking all retail and wholesale food establishments for any of the recalled products," said Commissioner Irvin.
Consumers who have purchased White Rabbit Candy are urged to return it to the place of purchase for a full refund or discard it.
Consumers with questions may contact the company at (650) 697-6633.
