Thibodaux, LA – The Superintendent of the Lafourche Parish School System releases the following announcement.

Superintendent Jo Ann Matthews, said, “Due to a letter received from #1 Fund Raising of Baton Rouge announcing a voluntary recall from Blue Ribbon Products, Inc. of their 3 lb. Peanut Butter cookie dough the Lafourche Parish School Board wishes to inform anyone that may have participated in the fund raiser of this recall. #1 Fund Raising has decided to voluntarily recall all Peanut Butter cookie dough sold during the fall fund raising season.”

When the letter was received, the school system did the following:

(2) Secured information from #1 Fund Raising if other schools in our district had placed orders with them; and
(3) Notified parents of students of all schools via a letter from the principal.
According to its letter, #1 Fund Raising will reimburse or replace any person who bought Peanut Butter cookie dough during the sale.
