Gerber recalls baby cereal for choking hazard


July 14, 2007

WASHINGTON -- Gerber Products Co. recalled all packages of its
organic rice and organic oatmeal cereals Friday because of potential clumping, which can pose a choking hazard.


Gerber said it has received complaints of choking but no reports of
injury. The company said a ''limited quantity'' of the cereals could
contain lumps that do not dissolve in water or milk. The cereals were distributed nationwide.

All codes are being recalled. The organic rice cereal UPC code is
15000 12504; the organic oatmeal cereal UPC code is 15000 12502.
Customers can call (800) 443-7237 or (231) 928-3000 to return the product and receive a full refund.
