Companies that manufacture baby foods sold under the Target Store brand are recalling packages for over 25,000 products due to the potential for high lead levels.
According to the US Food and Drug Administration, Miami-based Full Selva issued a recall in March as it is being sold at Target’s Good and Good Pea, Zucchini and Kale & Thyme Vegetable Puree.
The package includes lot number 4167 with the highest date of December 7th and lot number 4169 with the highest date of December 9th.
Consumers should not feed their babies products.
The recall is listed as Class II. This means that the product is unlikely to cause serious harm, but it can still lead to temporary or reversible problems.
According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there is no safe level of exposure to lead for children. Exposure to heavy metals can cause developmental and cognitive problems.
