Kellogg announced that it is recalling approximately 10,000 cases of Eggo Nutri-Grain Whole Wheat Waffles due to possible contamination with the bacteria Listeria monocytogenes.
No one has been sickened by the waffles at this point, according to the company.
Kellogg said in a statement that the recall was “the result of routine tests that the company conducts which identified the potential for contamination.”
Listeria monocytogenes can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.
The company has received no reports of illness to date but is taking this action as part of its commitment to the health and safety of the people who eat its foods.
