Federal officials are urging the public to not eat Kellogg’s Honey Smacks and to throw away any they have in their homes because of a nationwide outbreak of Salmonella Mbandaka infections.
Out of 73 victims in 31 states for whom the CDC has information, 44 percent have required hospitalization. No deaths have been confirmed. The FDA posted a recall notice from Kellogg Co. that says only the Honey Smacks flavor of cereal is implicated.
“Ill people in this outbreak reported this cereal (Honey Smacks) more often than any other cereals or food items,” according to the outbreak notice from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The recall notice on the Food and Drug Administration website includes information to help consumers identify the recalled cereal.
