02/13/2009

MINNEAPOLIS — General Mills announced today a voluntary recall of three flavors of Cascadian Farm snack bars containing peanuts: Cascadian Farm Peanut Butter Chip Chewy Granola Bars, Cascadian Farm Sweet & Salty Mixed Nut Chewy Granola Bars, and Cascadian Farm Sweet & Salty Peanut Pretzel Chewy Granola Bars.

General Mills Issues Voluntary Recall of LÄRABAR and JamFrakas Peanut Butter Snack Bars 01/19/2009

The company said it has no reason to believe there is a safety issue with these products, but that it is taking the action, as a precaution, because peanut pieces in the products may have been sourced from the Plainview, Texas, plant of Peanut Corporation of America.

PCA is no longer a supplier to Cascadian Farm, and no other types, varieties or flavors of Cascadian Farm products are being recalled.

On Jan. 19, General Mills announced a recall of LÄRABAR Peanut Butter Cookie bars and JamFrakas Peanut Butter Blisscrisp bars because the products contained ingredients sourced from the same company. No other General Mills products use any ingredients purchased from this company. The specific products in this recall include:
