It's Rich Fields brand butter cookies, sold by Rite Aid. (Rite Aid has 47,000 stores in 31 states in the U.S.) The recalled cookies come in beautiful holiday tins with Christmas design, which hopefully means that if you bought them, you haven't eaten them yet. Don't. They can give you a nasty case of food poisoning, though not as dangerous as some other bacteria such as E.coli 0157 or Listeria monocytogenes. And whatever you do, don't let your children anywhere near them.
Here's the rest of the data I have about them: the tins are 12 ounce size. The UPC codes 01249596519 and 88411804619 are located directly beneath the bar code on the bottom of each tin.
Rite Aid is very busy calling its card-customers who bought them and trying to track 85,000 tins of these cookies.
To your good health,
TSF

I warned my mother about this yesterday. We work at the same place, and our co-workers bring in a lot of goodies this time of year. Unwashed hands digging in the food is enough of a problem!
