I love these fruit bars, especially the coconut ones, but yikes.
This is a rough one since most modern food production facilities completely (or almost completely) eliminate glass from the production floor and track every glass breakage event. Typically all glass and brittle plastic in use in production areas is indexed and audited regularly. Glass getting in the food should be next to impossible.
Sounds like these folks messed up big time!!
A company that sees a problem and actually puts out a recall before being forced to do so?!
Let me quote Randy Marsh for a second, “I THOUGHT THIS WAS AMERICA!”
I hope anyone who bought these sees the recall.
Save you a click: glass in the fuckin ice cream!! — sold nationwide.
Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream, Inc. announced a voluntary recall this week of certain Outshine Fruit Bars flavors “due to possible foreign material contamination with glass.”
… The recall affects a “limited number” of Outshine Fruit Bars flavors, including Strawberry, Watermelon, Grape, Tangerine and Black Cherry, according to a Dreyer’s news release.
We have a few of these bars in a couple of these flavors. The link doesn’t list anything about dates of manufacture. I guess I toss them for safety reasons.
My local news station has got you covered
