Kellogg Recalls 28 Million Boxes of Cereal

Kellogg Co. has voluntarily recalled nearly 28 million boxes of Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, Froot Loops and Honey Smacks cereals. The company says the lining in the packages results in an unusual smell and flavor, and could make some people ill.

The company says the risk of illness or health problems is low, but is offering customers a refund while they try to determine what substance in the packaging has caused the problem.

Only products with “KN” following the use-by date are included in the recall.

Other Recalls:
