Kellogg Recalls Honey Smacks Cereal

You may have to change up your breakfast routine after a nationwide Kellogg cereal recall.

Kellogg has voluntarily recalled all 15.3 oz and 23 oz packages of Honey Smacks cereal due to the potential presence of Salmonella.

Both recalled packages of cereal have Best If Used By dates of June 14, 2018 through June 14, 2019. The 15.0 oz boxes have the UPC code 3800039103 and the 23 oz boxes have the UPC code 3800014810.

Kellogg adds that no other products are impacted by this recall and that they have launched an investigation with the third-party manufacturer who produces Honey Smacks cereal.
