Kraft Jalapeno string cheese
Kraft Foods Group Inc. is voluntarily recalling the Jalapeno variety of Kraft String Cheese with the Best When Used By date of 23 NOV 2012 as a precaution due to the possibility that a thin layer of plastic film from the package may remain adhered to the product. If the film sticks to the cheese and is not removed, it could potentially cause a choking hazard.
The following single code date of this product is being recalled:
Name of Product: Kraft String Cheese, Jalapeno Variety
Size: 12-oz bag with 12 individual 1-oz snacks
Best When Used By Date: 23 NOV 2012
UPC: 2100002977
Consumers can find the Best When Used By date on the back of the 12-oz package in the lower-right corner.
No other code dates of Kraft Jalapeno String Cheese and no other varieties of Kraft String Cheese or any other Kraft Foods products are being recalled.
There has been one consumer complaint. Approximately 2,700 cases of the affected product were shipped to customers across the United States. The affected product was not distributed in Canada.
Consumers who purchased the product with the Best When Used By date of 23 NOV 2012 should not eat it. They should return it to the store of purchase for an exchange or full refund. Consumers also can contact Kraft Foods Consumer Relations Monday through Friday at 800-396-2133.
