Organic 2ND FOODS® Pouches Due to a Packaging Defect That May Result in Product
Spoilage
Consumers: Gerber Parents Resource Center 1-800-706-0556
Gerber Products Company is voluntarily recalling specific
Organic pouch products after identifying a packaging defect that may result in
product spoilage during transport and handling. Because of our commitment to
high quality, Gerber is working to retrieve from retailers and online stores
the remaining pouches from the four affected batches of GERBER® Organic 2ND
FOOD pouches that fail to meet our quality standards. We are offering
replacement coupons for consumers who purchased the following products:
GERBER® Organic 2ND FOODS® Pouches –Pears, Carrots &
Peas, 3.5 ounce pouch UPC 15000074319
Best By dates/batch codes

This recall does not impact any other Gerber pouches, other
Gerber products or products outside of the US.
Consumers may notice that, in some cases, the pouches are
bloated and product inside may have an off taste or odor. There have been three
consumer reports of temporary gastrointestinal symptoms, however, we have been
unable to confirm that these are related to the product. Consumers should not
use the product, since it does not meet our high quality standards.
The products were distributed at U.S. retailers nationwide
and through on-line stores. Consumers who purchased pouches with the above
UPCs, batch codes and expiration dates are encouraged to contact the Gerber
Parents Resource Center at 1-800-706-0556 FREE anytime day or night for a
replacement coupon.
At Gerber, we place the health and well-being of babies
