Recalled by YouBar on Jun 14, 2017
Recall Summary
YouBar recalled Nutrifuel - Paleo Nutrition Bar in a Class I action — the FDA's most serious tier, reserved for products with a reasonable probability of causing serious health consequences or death on Jun 14, 2017.
The recall was triggered by possible Listeria contamination: "Firm was notified by supplier that cashew butter used in protein bars is under recall due to the potential of Listeria monocytogenes." Listeria monocytogenes can grow at refrigerator temperatures and is especially dangerous for pregnant people, newborns, older adults, and those with weakened immune systems.
Distribution was limited; the FDA record lists "Direct customers." Single-area recalls still warrant a kitchen check for anyone who shops within that footprint. The recalling firm is based in Monterey Park, CA. The recall covers 5,184 of product. The FDA has Terminated this recall (first reported Jul 26, 2017), its final lifecycle state, indicating the agency considers the corrective action resolved. The historical record remains useful for tracking a brand's recall pattern over time.
