The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USDA) has announced the recall of Stonyfield Farm brand non-fat blueberry yogurt products due to possible contamination.
The Londonderry, N.H., company said it initiated its voluntary recall because of the possibility of glass fragments in the product. Being recalled are 6-ounce containers of fat free blueberry yogurts carrying one of following product codes printed along the cup bottom that start with the following dates: “Apr 14 08,” “Apr 15 08,” “April 25 08,” or “Apr 26 08.”
The yogurt is sold at natural food and grocery stores nationwide. Consumers are instructed to return opened and unopened containers to their retailers for a refund. Consumers with questions can contact the company at 800-776-2697.
“Our first priority has always been and always will be the welfare of our consumers,” says Gary Hirshberg, Stonyfield Farm President and CE-Yo. “While we continue to investigate these complaints and believe that the risk of injury is extremely remote, we feel that this voluntary measure is the prudent and responsible step at this time.”
