Kellogg recalls Mini-Wheats cereal for metal fragments

By

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – Kellogg Canada is recalling some of its Mini-Wheats cereal due to fears boxes may be contaminated with fragments of metal mesh.

The recall affects packages of Mini-Wheats Original Frosted cereal and Mini-Wheats Brown Sugar Flavour Frosted cereal, which are being pulled from store shelves. Approximately 36,000 cases of the affected product were in stores country-wide when the recall was initiated yesterday.

Kellogg blames the contamination on a defective machine on the production line.

The affected packages were sold in the United States, Canada and Mexico. You can call Kellogg at 1-888-876-3750 from 5:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. PST Monday to Friday.
