Kellogg Recalls Cereal Over Metal Fragments

Kellogg may not have a ton of recalls, but it definitely has interesting ones. The latest involves frosted and unfrosted Mini-Wheats because of "the possible presence of fragments of flexible metal mesh from a faulty manufacturing part,” the company explains. It follows a bigger recall of several cereals in 2010 because of a weird smell, and both glitches point to lingering problems in the company's supply chain, notes the Wall Street Journal.

The company is spending $100 million this year to try to fix those problems, and it will take a $30 million third-quarter charge because of the latest recall. It affects about 3 million boxes of the "bite size" Mini-Wheats variety with the letters KB, AP, or FK before or after the "Best If Used Before" date.
