Kashi Chewy Trail Mix Granola Bars recall

Recalled by Kellogg Company · Battle Creek, MI, United States

Class I — High risk. Reasonable probability of serious harm or death.

Why it was recalled

Product contains sunflower seeds potentially contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. Listeria monocytogenes, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy individuals may suffer only short-term symptoms such as high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea, listeria infection can cause miscarriages and stillbirths among pregnant women.

Pathogen: Listeria

Listeria monocytogenes can grow even in the fridge and is especially dangerous in pregnancy.

The most serious food recalls: a contaminated product can cause outbreaks, hospitalisations and deaths, especially for pregnant people, young children, older adults and anyone with a weakened immune system. All bacteria & viruses recalls.
