MadeGood Granola Bars

Several MadeGood Granola Bars distributed across the United States and Canada were recalled at Target stores on December 9 following an FDA recall due to the “potential presence of a piece of metal in the product, which, if consumed, may result in a safety hazard.”

The products recalled by the FDA are MadeGood’s: Chocolate Chip Granola Bars, Mixed Berry Granola Bars, Strawberry Granola Bars, Cookies & Crème Granola Bars, Chocolate Banana Granola Bars, Chocolate Drizzled Birthday Cake Granola Bars, Chocolate Drizzled Cookie Crumble Granola Bars, and Chocolate Drizzled Vanilla Granola Bars.

On December 9, the day of the recall, Riverside Natural Foods, the manufacturers of MadeGood Granola Bars, said: “Riverside has conducted an extensive investigation where the recalled products were manufactured and has identified the source of the issue in the manufacturing process. The company has remediated the issue and tested the new processes to ensure that any future risk is fully mitigated”

A spokesperson for MadeGood told Newsweek: “Upon receiving a small number of consumer complaints, we conducted an extensive internal investigation and identified that the metal piece originated from a brush that is used to deep-clean the oven conveyor used in our granola-making process. In each instance, the metal bristle had come loose during the sanitation process and had transferred to the conveyor belt where the granola was placed after baking.

“To remediate the situation, we no longer use the brush that sourced the bristles, we have implemented additional safeguards in the sanitation process, and we have enhanced our metal detection process for finished goods. We’ve tested the new processes to ensure that any risk of future contamination is mitigated. Our investigation was thorough, and we have taken every measure to ensure the safety of all our products.”
