Stonyfield
Announces Voluntary Recall of Select Blueberry Cups
Affects 6-Ounce fat free blueberry
yogurts
ST. LOUIS – Organic yogurt maker Stonyfield Farm is voluntarily recalling Stonyfield Organic Fat Free Blueberry Yogurt, packaged in 6 oz cups, carrying product codes printed along the cup bottom that start with the following dates:
Apr 13 08; Apr 14 08; Apr 15 08; April 25 08; Apr 26 08
The recall comes in response to
consumer complaints reporting “tiny beads the size of mustard seeds” in these
particular batches of fat free blueberry yogurt. There have been no reports of
injury. Company leaders believe this is
an isolated incident and are taking this step as a precaution.
Stonyfield Farm is advising its
distribution network to immediately remove these specific code-dates of 6-ounce
fat free blueberry yogurt from retail shelves. The yogurts are sold at
natural food stores and grocery retailers nationwide including Schnucks and
Logli stores in
Schnucks and Logli customers who
may have purchased fat free blueberry yogurts with these code dates are asked
to return opened and unopened containers to your neighborhood Schnucks or Logli
stores for a full refund.
Consumers with questions should contact Stonyfield Farm
Consumer Relations at 1-800-PRO-COWS or the Schnucks Consumer Affairs
Department at 314-994-4400 or 800-264-4400.
