Kraft recall original Macaroni and Cheese, sell by date 9/18/15 and 10/11/15


KRAFT FOODS GROUP VOLUNTARILY RECALLS SELECT CODE DATES AND MANUFACTURING CODES OF KRAFT MACARONI & CHEESE BOXED DINNERS DUE TO POSSIBLE METAL PIECES
The Washington Post/Elahe Izadi, "Kraft recalls more than 6 million boxes of macaroni and cheese because they may contain metal", 3/18/15.

"Kraft is voluntarily recalling thousands of cases of its original-flavored macaroni and cheese due to a concern that some boxes may contain pieces of metal. According to Kraft, eight consumer complaints have been logged about the product, but there have been no reported injuries. "We deeply regret this situation and apologize to any consumers we have disappointed," Kraft said in a statement on Tuesday.

Consumers are warned not to prepare and eat macaroni that comes in the original flavor, 7.25-ounce sized box sizes carrying a "best when used by" date between Sept. 18 to Oct. 11 and a code "C2" below the expiration dates. The code shows the specific factory line where the potentially tainted boxes were produced. Some of the dinners also come in packs containing multiple boxes made at different facilities. Consumers should check the individual boxes, and return potentially tainted boxes to stores for an exchange or refund, according to Kraft.   Read more.
