I'm confident you don't eat refined sugar and additives... and hopefully neither do your clients.... but they may have kids and ... well, you know how it goes. So, here's the Official Statement:
Working in
consultation with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
Kellogg Company (NYSE: K) is implementing a voluntary recall of
certain breakfast cereals due to an uncharacteristic off-flavor and
smell coming from the liner in the package.
Only products with the letters "KN" following the "Better If Used Before Date" are included in the recall. Products with a "KM" designation are NOT included in the recall. In addition, no products in Canada are affected.

While the potential for serious health problems is low, some consumers are sensitive to the uncharacteristic off-flavor and smell and should not eat the recalled products because of possible temporary symptoms, including nausea and diarrhea.
No other Kellogg's products are part of this recall. The recalled products were distributed nationwide.
Those with questions or who would like a replacement may contact the Kellogg Consumer Response Center at 888-801-4163 from 8 am to 8 pm Eastern time.
Why not just eat right in the first place?
