Select Parent's Choice Rice Baby Cereal has been recalled due to the possible presence of arsenic.
Maple Island Inc. issued the voluntary recall of three lots of its Parent’s Choice Rice Baby Cereal, which is manufactured for Walmart. According to the FDA notice, this recall "is a result of a routine sampling program by the FDA which found that a sample from three production lots of Parent’s Choice Rice Baby Cereal tested above the guidance for naturally occurring inorganic arsenic."
The recalled baby cereal was distributed to Walmart stores nationally and online.
"Walmart was advised and has pulled the product from its store shelves and put a register block on the product at its stores and online to prevent any further sales," the recall indicates.
At the time of the notice, no illnesses related to the recalled products have been reported.
The 8 oz. Parent’s Choice Rice Baby Cereal lots included in this recall were sold after April 5, 2021. They include the following:
Lot 21083 with UPC Code #00681131082907 with a best if used by date of JUN 24 2022.
Lot 21084 with UPC Code #00681131082907 with a best if used by date of JUN 25 2022
Lot 21242 with UPC Code #00681131082907 with a best if used by date of NOV 30 2022
The best if used by date and product numbers are located on the bottom left corner on the back of the Parent’s Choice Rice Baby Cereal packaging.
If you have any of the recalled products, you can return them to Walmart for a full refund or discard them.
Customers can call Maple Island Inc., Monday through Friday 8am – 4pm Central time at 1-800-369-1022 or contact the company by email at info@maple-island.com with additional questions.
According to the recall notice, "Maple Island Inc. conducted testing on both the raw material and finished product in question. While the test results were in compliance with the FDA’s guidelines, Maple Island Inc. is issuing this recall out of an abundance of caution. FDA has recognized that trace elements such as these are widely present in the environment, including water, soil and food. The FDA also noted that research has shown reducing exposure to toxic elements is important to minimizing any potential long-term effects on the developing brains of infants and children."
