The company, HP Hood LLC is recalling five SKUs of 96 oz. containers of Lactaid milk because the product may contain trace amounts of almonds, which are not listed on the label. People who have an allergy to almonds may run the risk of serious life-threatening reactions if consumed.
No illnesses have been reported so far.
The affected 96 oz. containers of Lactaid included whole, fat-free, 2%, 1%, and 2% calcium enriched milk.

The issue was discovered during routine maintenance programs which revealed the potential for trace amounts of almond.
