Voluntary Recall

On January 19, 2009, we announced a voluntary recall of 14 U.S and 4 Canadian products including CLIF Bar, CLIF Builder’s, CLIF MOJO, CLIF Kid Organic ZBaR and LUNA Bar, in the U.S. and Canada because the peanut butter in those products was sourced, for a limited period of time, from the Peanut Corporation of America (PCA). PCA is a manufacturer and supplier of peanut butter for many food companies and manufacturers.

PCA is under investigation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for a recent Salmonella outbreak thought to be caused by tainted peanut butter. In light of this investigation, and with an abundance of caution, Clif Bar & Company has enacted a voluntary recall. We take the health and safety of our consumers very seriously.

In the U.S, the following 14 products are included in the recall. Only bars with wrappers that have the following BEST BY or SELL BY codes1 on them, in all sizes and packages, are being recalled:

I've eaten them...and had no ill effects. I have about 3 left now (I buy them at Costco) and I'll ditch them immediately. Dang. Either I have a cast-iron stomach or my bars weren't tainted.

Won't flirt with fate on this one, though...

Can't they be returned? I mean if you had a whole bunch of them left that's a lot of money.

If you still have any of the coupons issued by Clif, they are about to expire.
