Rummage through the cupboards and toss those Health Valley organic snack bars, the Georgia Agriculture Commission is warning.
Several types of Health Valley Granola Bars have recalled due to possible Salmonella contamination from toasted soy grits.
The national recall by Lovin Oven LLC of Irwindale, Calif., is for Health Valley Organic Peanut Crunch, Dutch Apple and Wildberry Chewy Granola Bars. Those products contain soy grits supplied by Thumb Oilseed Producers Cooperative of Ubly, Mich., according to Jackie Sosby, a spokesperson for Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tommy Irvin.
The peanut bars have the SKU number 0-35742-15483-4 on the bottom and the following lot codes: 07DEC09H2; 15JAN10H2; 23FEB10H2; 28FEB10H2; 28MAR10H2; 29MAR10H1; 13APR10H1; 06SEP10H2; 06NOV10H2; 09FEB10H2.
The Dutch apple bars have the SKU number 0-35742-15482-7 and the following lot codes: 03JAN10H1; 05FEB10H2; 05FEB10H2; 28MAR10H2; 17AUG10H1.
The berry bars have the SKU number 0-35742-15481-0 on the bottom and the following lot codes: 05JAN10H2; 15JAN10H1; 12APR10H1; 06JUL10H1; 08MAR10H1
The company is urging consumers to get a refund by returning the recalled products to the store that sold them, Sosby said in a written statement.
