FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Brooklyn, NY -- September 12, 2003 ---Fay Da Manufacturing Corp., 192 Seigel Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206 is recalling Hazelnut Cookies because it may contain undeclared eggs and tree nuts.

The recalled Hazelnut Cookies packed in uncoded, clamshell type, clear-top, plastic containers were sold in Fay Da Bakeries located in the New York Metropolitan area.
