An ongoing product recall has been initiated by Feel Good Foods Inc., a New York-based company, concerning its Three Cheese Mac & Cheese Bites. The recall, which began on February 5, 2025, addresses the potential presence of metal fragments in the frozen snacks, posing significant health risks to consumers. Such contamination can lead to serious consequences ranging from choking and injury to more severe conditions.
The affected product has been distributed across the United States, emphasizing the widespread nature of this safety concern. Each package contains 8 ounces (224 grams) of the cheese bites, packed in yellow cartons with nine units per case. Two specific lots are under scrutiny: one with a "best by" date of June 19, 2026, and another set for June 20, 2026. A total of 4,246 cases have been recalled. Despite being classified as a Class II recall—indicating a lower probability of causing serious harm—the potential for adverse health events remains significant.
Consumers are urged to inspect their freezers for any affected products and cease using them immediately, regardless of appearance or smell. It is crucial not to consume, sell, serve, or distribute these items. Instead, they should be returned to the point of purchase or disposed of promptly. While no injuries have been reported thus far, anyone experiencing symptoms after exposure should seek medical attention without delay. Ensuring food safety is paramount, especially for vulnerable groups such as infants, the elderly, and individuals recovering from surgery. This recall serves as a reminder of the importance of stringent quality control measures in the food industry to safeguard public health.
