Kellogg Issues Massive Honey Smacks Cereal Recall Over Salmonella Risk

Kellogg Co said on Thursday it is recalling an estimated 1.3 million cases of its Honey Smacks cereal from more than 30 U.S. states due to the potential for Salmonella contamination, in the latest case of U.S. food products possibly tainted by the illness-causing bacteria. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration said it worked with Kellogg to issue the recall after preliminary evidence linked the product to more than 60 illnesses. “The FDA is working with the company to quickly remove this cereal from the marketplace,” the agency said in a statement.
