Kellogg Co. is recalling 28 million boxes of several popular cereals due to an unusual flavor and smell, the company said Friday. The recall includes some boxes of Kellogg (K, Fortune 500) brands Corn Pops, Honey Smacks, Froot Loops and Apple Jacks. The recalled products were sold across the country, Kellogg said.
The company said potential for serious health problems is low, but an “uncharacteristic off-flavor and smell coming from the liner in the package” could cause temporary symptoms including nausea and diarrhea.
