Just in time for the holidays, you’ll never guess why hot chocolate is being recalled! Yep, melamine contamination.

Dorsey Marketing Ville St. Laurent, Quebec, Canada, is voluntarily recalling the following three G&J Gourmet Market cocoa products because they may contain melamine:

1. G&J Hot Cocoa Stuffer, Item 120144 (UPC 061361201444). This hot cocoa product was sold in small green and blue boxes with a backer card, candy cane and marshmallows.

2. G&J His and Hers Hot Cocoa Set, Item 120129 (UPC 489702201296). This cocoa product was sold with 2 ceramic mugs in a brown box.

3. G&J Cocoa, item 120126, sold in 2 flavors: French Vanilla Cocoa and Double Chocolate Cocoa, (G&J French Vanilla Cocoa (UPC 061361201260). This product was sold in a small green bag with a whisk attached. 2. G&J Double Chocolate Cocoa (UPC 061361201260). This product was sold in a small pink bag with a whisk attached.)

While no injuries have been reported and only a few samples have been found to include melamine, DMI is proceeding with this recall in the interest of public health and the safety of American consumers.

Consumers who purchased these products are urged to return them to the place of purchase for a refund. Anyone with questions may contact Tim Acheson of DMI Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM EST toll free at 1-888-645-1053 or email recall@dmi-global.com.
