Pop-Tart Recall
Friday, Dec 15, 2006

Kellogg Company is recalling a limited number of cartons of Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Frosted Blueberry toaster pastries because they may contain undeclared milk. People who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to milk, run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume this product.

The product was distributed to grocery retailers in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.

The product is packaged in a 14.7 oz – 8-count carton with a bar code of 38000 31010. Only 8-count cartons with a manufacturing code beginning with AUG 27 07 CPC printed on the top of the carton are included in this alert.

No allergic reactions have been reported to date.

The recall was initiated after it was discovered that a limited number of Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Hot Fudge Sundae toaster pastries containing milk were mistakenly packed in Kellogg's Pop-Tarts Frosted Blueberry toaster pastries cartons that did not reveal the presence of milk on the label.

Consumers who have a Kellogg's® Pop-Tarts® Frosted Blueberry toaster pastries 8-ct carton with a bar code of 38000 31010 and a manufacturing code AUG 27 07 CPC printed on the top should call the Kellogg Consumer Response center at 1-800-237-1132.

No word on what the "Kellog Consumer Response Center" will tell callers in the event they in fact possess the mislabeled toaster food-like substances, however one might assume it would go like this..."Yes caller, we're here to help. Are the Pop-Tarts from your "Frosted Blueberry" box in fact chocolate? Yes? Okay, does anyone in your family have a milk allergy? If so, step away from the Pop-tarts!" :eek:
