1.8M Cheerios Boxes Recalled For Allergen Issue

Food manufacturer General Mills said Monday that it will recall an estimated 1.8 million boxes of its Cheerios and Honey Nut Cheerios cereals due to an incident that may have added wheat into products labeled as gluten-free. The Minneapolis- based company said in a news release that Cheerios and Honey Nut Cheerios cereals produced at its Lodi, California facility on certain dates might trigger illness or severe reactions for people with wheat allergies, celiac disease or gluten intolerance.
