Quaker Oats has recalled more than two dozen types of granola and cereal bars over a possible risk of salmonella contamination.
Salmonella is an organism that can cause fever, diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and in rare cases, death.
In extreme cases, salmonella can reach the bloodstream and cause more serious illnesses such as arterial infections, endocarditis and arthritis.
The various products have been sold in the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam and Saipan.
The company said it has not yet received any confirmed reports of illness related to the recall.
The company said consumers should throw away any affected products they find in their home and should call Quaker Oats customer service at 1-800-492-9322 or visit www.quakergranolarecall.com to request a refund.
Affected products include Quaker Chewy Bars with Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Dark Chocolate Chunks, Quaker Puffed Granola Cereal, Apple Cinnamon and Blueberry Vanilla, among others. Quaker oats
