Sara Lee Recalls 27 Brands of Whole-Wheat Bread

Updated July 2007: The Sara Lee Corporation is recalling 27 brands of whole-wheat bread products, including some from Publix, because they were found to contain small metal pieces. An inspection in the Meridian, Mississippi bakery uncovered issues with the company’s flour-sifting screening. The bakery was using bagged flour for the production of the bread that did not require a sifting system. The inspection found damage to the whole-wheat flour sifter which indicated that metal pieces may have made its way into the bread.

The recall contains bread with “best if purchased by” dates from July 25, 2007 to August 7, 2007, and has the code “222” printed on the packaging. The bread was available in Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Florida.
