Riverside Natural Foods first recalled certain batches of MadeGood granola bars sold across the country (and beyond) in December due to a potential metal contaminant in the product, “which, if consumed, may result in a safety hazard,” the company said.

(A full list of the impacted granola bars and their identifying UPC codes and best-by dates can be found on the FDA’s official website. Some of the bars were included in variety packs, as well.

Multiple varieties of MadeGood’s granola bars were impacted by the recall, including Chocolate Chip, Mixed Berry, Strawberry, two holiday varieties, and several others.

At the time, Riverside Natural Foods said it had identified the source of the problem and took the appropriate actions to “fully” mitigate any future issues.

In a classification update dated Feb. 11, the FDA appears to have upgraded the recall to a Class II, noting again that the product “may contain metal pieces.”

A Class II recall describes “a situation in which use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote,” the FDA writes on its website.

A representative for MadeGood was not immediately available to confirm whether there had been any injuries reported as a result of the potential metal contaminants. The initial recall notice in December had indicated there were none at the time.

A total of 2,408,883 cases of the bars have been recalled, according to the latest update.
