Abbott Nutrition is issuing a voluntary recall of certain Similac powder infant formulas. Apparently, there is a remote possibility of the presence of a small common beetle in the product produced in a single manufacturing facility. Yuck.
The recall includes certain Similac powder infant formula sold in plastic containers and in 8-ounce sample cans, and 12.4-ounce and 12.9-ounce cans.
To find out if your formula is involved, go to www.similac.com/recall/lookup and type in the lot number. (It looks like the site is getting a ton of traffic, and when I tried it took awhile to load.)
Also, Abbott has set up a hotline at (800) 986-8850.
