Thousands of products, including Cheerios, Pringles, Heinz Ketchup and Nutella, have been recalled in multiple states over possible contamination from rat and bird waste.
The recall originated from an unsanitary Gold Star Distribution facility, where “rodent excreta, rodent urine and bird droppings” were found, according to the Food and Drug Administration.
“These conditions create a significant risk that products held at the facility may have been contaminated with filth and harmful microorganisms,” reads a recall notice issued by the agency
The affected products also include over-the-counter medication like Advil, Tylenol and Excedrin; beverages such as Gatorade and Arizona Iced Tea; and food items from instant ramen to sauces and seasonings, in addition to several cosmetics, skin care items and pet food products. The full recall list can be found on the FDA’s website.
Anyone exposed to the potentially contaminated products could contract salmonella or leptospirosis, a bacterial disease caused by contact with animal waste. However, no illnesses related to the recall have been reported so far.
According to the FDA, Gold Star distributed the products to stores in three states: Indiana, North Dakota and Minnesota.
Gold Star is asking anyone in those states who purchased any of the products on the list to destroy them immediately. Refunds would be given upon request.
