Minneapolis (KARE) The message is clear from federal health officials: Do not sell, buy or eat Kellogg’s Honey Smacks because it could be contaminated with Salmonella. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now says 130 people in 36 states have gotten sick since a recall was announced in June.
The cereal was recalled by Kellogg’s on June 14 after reports of people falling ill. Despite that, the CDC says it has received reports that some retailers are still selling the cereal.
Some of the people who got recently sick still had the cereal in their homes, according to the CDC. Since July 12, 30 people in 19 states fell ill.
A total of 34 people have ended up in the hospital. No one has died.
The CDC says if you have Honey Smacks in your home, do not eat it — even if you’ve already eaten some and haven’t gotten sick. Throw it out or return it to the store.
