Food Recall for Ocean Spray Dried Cranberries
As the Christmas season begins, one Massachusetts company remains bogged down in Thanksgiving, after issuing a recall for its popular dried cranberry snacks.
The day after Thanksgiving, Ocean Spray of Middleboro issued a recall for four package sizes of its Original Flavor Craisins Dried Cranberries product. The company voluntarily recalled the snack because of the possibility packages contained small hair-like metal fragments. The metal fragments resulted from an equipment malfunction on a production line, a company official told Vitals, an MSNBC.com blog.
Ocean Spray said it has received no consumer complaints or injury reports. Dried cranberry snacks are a growing product line for Ocean Spray. Last summer, a company official told the New England Business Bulletin that it was planning to expand its Middleboro facility and produce a third dried cranberry product.
The following Ocean Spray Original Flavor Craisins Dried Cranberries are part of this product recall:
- 5 oz Craisins® UPC: 00293-000
- 10 oz Craisins® UPC: 29456-000 and 29464-000
- 48 oz Craisins® UPC: 00678-318
