A baby formula company has expanded its recall to include every product it makes after finding dangerous bacteria in unopened containers.
What’s Happening: ByHeart now says all of its formula across all product lots may be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum Type A — the bacteria that causes infant botulism. The company found the bacteria in five of 36 unopened samples it tested from three different lots.
What’s Important: This is a major change from two weeks ago. On November 11, ByHeart recalled specific batches and said no unopened cans tested positive for bacteria. Now the company admits it cannot rule out contamination in any of its products.
Between the Lines: The expanded recall covers far more than the initial products pulled on November 11. Every can and Anywhere Pack
