Kellogg Recalls 28 Million Boxes of Cereal

It may put you right smack in the toilet

And the weekly recalls begin. Kelloggs has voluntary recalled 28 million boxes of breakfast cereals because of a noted “off-flavor and smell coming from the liner in the package”. Products with the letters “KN” following the Better If Used Before Date are included in the recall. Products with a “KM” designation are NOT included in the recall. If you have any of the following products in your pantry, do not eat them. Return them to the place where you purchased them. This one appears not to be too hazardous, but better safe and sorry. According to the Kellogg’s website there is a possibility of “temporary symptoms, including nausea and diarrhea”.
