Snack bars sold at Walmart and other chains might have metal. That’s not an ingredient
The latest not-food-in-your-food recall comes from Clio, which yanked three different brands of its yogurt snack bars for possible metal contamination.
The recall letter that posted for Costco customers said, “Certain products may contain very small metallic fragments from a piece of production equipment/machinery. The problem was identified and promptly corrected.”
But not before those certain products got into the retail world. Walmart posted the recall Tuesday, stating they were sold at “All Walmart stores and Sam’s Clubs.”
Here’s what’s been recalled:
▪ Vanilla & Strawberry Greek Yogurt Minis, boxes of 24, expiration dates between 2/21/2021 and 7/4/2021.
▪ Vanilla & Strawberry Greek Yogurt Bars, boxes of 16, expiration dates between 2/14/2021 and 5/9/2021.
▪ No Added Sugar Mixed Berry & Peach Yogurt Bars, expiration dates between 2/14/2021 and 7/11/2021.
Clio wants consumers to toss out the product and email them at info@cliosnacks.com with proof of purchase for reimbursement via coupon. But consumers can also just take the product back to the store of purchase for a full refund.
Folks with questions can email info@cliosnacks.com, Monday through Friday, noon to 8 p.m., Eastern time.
