Of all the recalls we have seen so far, this must be the craziest and funniest! Kelloggs has recalled its cereals because they tasted odd and had bad smell(I wonder in how many bowels they ended).
Kelloggs Corporation made a recall for its cereal products because of its smelly and uncharacteristic taste which originates from its box packaging.
Affected by recall is approximately 28 million of Kellogs cereal products. This includes the brand Froot Loops, Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, and Honey Smacks which are sold all over US. The source of the problem was identified as the the lining of the packaging which produces the waxy-like off-taste and smell.
Kelloggs Official added that although the health risk of eating the recalled products is low, customers with sensitive taste and smell might have temporary symptoms like nausea and/or diarrhea.
The batch of cereal recall can be identified on its box. The recalled products contains the initial “KN” after the label “better if used before date”.
If you have already purchased the recalled batch, you may call Kelloggs at 888-801-4163. They will also answer queries from consumers concerning the products.
