Why it was recalled
General Mills announced a voluntary U.S. recall of multiple skus of Nature Valley Protein Chewy Bars and Nature Valley Simple Nut Bars. The recall is being issued in association with the expanded recall of sunflower kernels from SunOpta due to the potential presence of Listeria monocytogenes.
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.
