With a broken daughter, mums speaks about mums “tragic and painful” death after she eaten supermarket biscuit – US news – US messages

The family of a 78-year-old woman who died of a severe allergic reaction has filed a lawsuit against a supermarket.

On April 7, 2023, Peggy Bryant bought in a Safeway food shop in Duvall, Washington.

In addition to various other products, she bought a biscuit and decided to eat a oat cake shortly after her shopping.

After her daughter Lisa Bishop had taken a bite, Peggy said that the biscuit was not an oatmeal.

Peggy finally experienced a severe allergic reaction and died – only months before she was supposed to celebrate her 60th anniversary with her husband.

Lisa has meanwhile started a lawsuit against Safeway – in the possession of Albertson's Companies – in which it was claimed that the biscuit was incorrectly referred to as “oatmeal rosin -cookie”.

Lisa spoke to King 5 Seattle and claimed that her mother took a bite of the biscuit and realized that the biscuit she at was actually an peanut butter was actually.

“And she is fatal against nuts – peanuts,” she added.

Peggy was immediately taken to the hospital, but Lisa said she passed away within an hour.

The family asked the forensic doctor for a complete report, and the blood results supposedly said that Peggy's death was “clearly caused by” anaphylaxis “.

The Mayo Clinic explains: “Anaphylaxis is a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction. It can occur within seconds or minutes after exposure to something that are allergic, such as peanuts or bee stitches.”

Another member of Peggy's family found that the forensic doctor said her blood vessels had basically settled.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) later carried out an inspection in Safeway.

Since then, Peggy's family has filed a lawsuit against Safeway (King 5 Seattle)

Ultimately, it called for a recall, whereby Safeway, entitled “Albertson's Companies, voluntarily remembers Haferhafen Roosins cookies that were sold in a Safeway business in Duvall, Washington, because of an unkalized peanut and soy -allergens.

In the following two years, Peggy's family submitted a lawsuit against Safeway.

In the lawsuit, responsibility for the error and improvements to the food labeling of the business is requested.

“The last moments of my mother's life were tragic and terrible and painful,” said Lisa.

Lisa asked Safeway to “do the right thing” and raise awareness of her mother's history because she “does not want it to happen to someone else”.

She decided: “Labels are there for a certain reason and we don't want someone else to die of false influences.”
