Baby food recalled due to elevated levels of lead
ASSOCIATED PRESS (WSAV) — Publix has recalled fruit and vegetable baby food sold in eight states, including Georgia. According to federal health officials, the baby food was found to have elevated levels of lead.
Publix recalled 4-ounce Greenwise Pear, Kiwi, Spinach & Pea Baby Food pouches sold at more than 1,400 stores.
The pouches were produced by Bowman Andros, a French company with a manufacturing plant in Virginia, according to the company's website. Publix issued the voluntary recall on May 9, but it wasn't added to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recall list until late Thursday.
Publix said all the potentially contaminated products have been removed from store shelves and no illnesses have been reported. Customers can return the pouches to local stores for full refund.
