Market Pantry brand’s White Fudge Animal Cookies are being recalled after a metal wire was found inside some of the products, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said last week. The product, sold by D. F. Stauffer Biscuit Co., Inc., was distributed to Target stores nationwide and comes in a clear plastic container shaped like a bear.
