Another week, another recall due to potential listeria contamination: This time, the recall comes from the Quaker Oats Company which has recalled some of its granola bars after one of their ingredient suppliers distributed sunflower kernels that may be contaminated with listeria, they announced in a press release.
According to the release, there haven’t been any reported illnesses in relation to the recall, and the company says most of the granola bars included in the recall never reached retail shelves (phew), though some did. The granola bars to look for are listed below:
• 6.1-ounce boxes of Quaker Quinoa Granola Bars Chocolate Nut Medley with UPC code 30000 32241 and “best before” dates of 10/16/2016 or 10/17/2016
• 6.1-ounce boxes of Quaker Quinoa Granola Bars Yogurt, Fruit & Nut with UPC code 30000 32243 and “best before” dates 10/10/2016 or 10/11/2016.
If you have a box of the granola bars, the company urges you to throw it away or return it to the store for a refund.
