Recently, it was found out during the product that it was contaminated with a bacteria called B. cereus, thatt can cause a mild case of stomach upset or vomiting. An involuntary bulimia?

It's recall still unclear that could be from consumer complaints, quality testing, or both. According to ABC News, an FDA spokesman said that testing was done after "several consumers" complained about the product, but Unilever spokeswoman Anita Larsen assured consumers that quality testing is part of their regular routine.

Unilever is stressing to consumers that an infection with B. cereus is minimal. If you've got any of the product in your home, however, you should discard it immediately. Call Unilever at 1-800-896-9479 to get a full refund. Keep in mind that the recall only affects their ready-to-drink cans, not their powdered drink products or nutritional bars that they produced.
