Some gummy vitamins sold under the popular Vitafusion brand are being recalled because they could contain pieces of metal.
In a recall notice posted on the federal Food and Drug Administration’s website, New Jersey-based Church & Dwight said it ”initiated a voluntary recall of select Vitafusion gummy products after the company’s investigation of two consumer reports identified the possible presence of a metallic mesh material.”
The products were manufactured from Oct. 29 to Nov. 3, according to the notice, which said the company is not aware of any reports of consumer illness or injury but warned that, in “some severe cases, ingesting a metallic material could lead to damage of the digestive tract.”
