Off-Flavor, Smell Lead to Kelloggs Cereal Recall

BATTLE CREEK, Mich.Kellogg Co. is voluntarily recalling certain breakfast cereals due to an uncharacteristic off-flavor and smell coming from the liner in the package. While the potential for serious health problems is low, there is a possibility of the recalled products could cause temporary symptoms, including nausea and diarrhea.

The recall involves Kellogg's® Apple Jacks®, Kellogg's® Corn Pops®, Kellogg's® Froot Loops® and Kellogg's® Honey Smacks®. Only products with the letters "KN" following the Better If Used Before Date are included in the recall. Products with a "KM" designation are NOT included in the recall. In addition, no products in Canada are affected.

"We apologize to our consumers and our customers and are working diligently to ensure that the affected products are rapidly removed from the marketplace," said David Mackay, president and chief executive officer, Kellogg Co.
