Baby Food Recall: Beech-Nut Baby Food Recalled Due to Glass Shard Found in Jar

The company is recalling 4-ounce glass jars of Stage 2 sweet potato and chicken baby food marked "DEC 2016" and product numbers "12395750815" through "12395750821" on the cap. The jars also include establishment number "P-68A."

The recall was prompted by a call from a customer who found a small piece of glass in a jar of baby food. Beech-Nut said it "received the report of an oral injury associated with the consumption of these products," but no other injuries had been reported.

"Outside of this single report, we have no indication that any other jar of our Classics Stage 2 Sweet Potato & Chicken is affected, but as a company of parents and families we are acting with an abundance of caution," the company said in a statement. "The quality and safety of our products is our number one priority. We know we have not met the expectations of parents who rely on Beech-Nut for quality nutrition for their babies and toddlers in this case, and for that we apologize."

Customers who purchased the recalled food are encouraged to return the recalled jars to the store where they were bought for a full refund or exchange.
