Cereal Recall Announced


Kellogg said Friday that it is voluntarily recalling some of its cereals in the U.S. due to an unusual flavor and a smell coming from package liners that the company said could cause nausea and diarrhea.

The company said Friday that it is recalling select packages of Corn Pops, Honey Smacks, Froot Loops and Apple Jacks.

Kellogg did not say what caused the smell but said the potential for serious health problems is low.

The company said some consumers are sensitive to the smell and should not eat the recalled products.
