The recall involves 14-ounce boxes of Heartland® Harvest Spice Granola Cereal with UPC 024300 090394 and best if used by dates from March 26 through Sept. 10, 2013); and 14-ounce boxes of Heartland® Fruit & Nut Harvest Granola Cereal with UPC 024300 090387 and best if used by dates from March 25 through Sept. 10, 2013.
