What to do now

MadeGood Granola Bars is being recalled because metal fragments have been found or could be present.

  1. Do not eat it and do not try to find the metal yourself.
  2. Put it out of reach of children.
  3. Take it back to the shop where you bought it for a full refund, or throw it away if you prefer. You do not usually need a receipt.
  4. If you froze some or put it into another container, check those portions too.

Why it matters. Metal fragments can break teeth or cut the mouth and throat. Processing lines use metal detectors, and a recall like this usually means a fault was found after products had left.

Symptoms and when to get help

Look out for

  • pain in the mouth or throat
  • a chipped or broken tooth

Get help urgently

  • bleeding, vomiting blood or severe stomach pain — go to A&E or call 999

This is general information based on NHS public guidance, not medical advice. In an emergency call 999. For urgent advice use NHS 111 (NHS 24 on 111 in Scotland) or, in Northern Ireland, your GP or out-of-hours service.
