Sadly I have a chocolate related recall to report to you all today, Sisters and Brothers. This is more related to stores than to individuals but if you purchased the products in question in a candy shop bin, you may want to contact that store and see if their shipment is part of this recall. As always we are not the last word and you must follow our links and stay updated.
