fiogf49gjkf0d Mars Incorporated, a manufacturer of confectionery, pet food, and other food products, as a precautionary measure, has voluntarily recalled brands such as Mars, Snickers, Milky Way and Celebrations produced in the Netherlands. The recall was initiated after a small piece of red plastic was found in one Snickers bar purchased in Germany.
The company said, “We believe this is an isolated incident. The recall concerns only specific products that were manufactured at the Netherlands facility during a limited production period, December 5, 2015 - January 18, 2016. While the number of Mars products affected is limited, they have been shipped to numerous countries outside the Netherlands, including some duty-free retailers.”
Further, as a precaution, the product recall is being implemented by the company's Netherlands facility in all markets where the brand has its presence.
“Only certain products labelled on the pack as “Mars Netherlands” are affected by this recall. Mars Netherlands exports to a number of countries and some duty-free outlets, so the easiest way for consumers to determine whether they have a product that has been recalled is to look at the label. If it is not labelled “Mars Netherlands,” it is not included in the recall,” clarified Mars Incorporated.
