Beech-Nut baby food recalled over fear of glass contamination

Federal food inspectors have announced the recall of 1,920 pounds of sweet potato and chicken baby food made by Beech-Nut Nutrition, saying it may be contaminated with small pieces of glass. The problem was discovered after Beech-Nut received a complaint from a consumer who found a small piece of glass in the product, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said in a statement on Tuesday. Beech-Nut, based in Amsterdam, N.Y., also learned of an oral injury associated with consumption of the product, it said. "Outside of this single report, we have no indication that any other jar of our Classics Stage 2 Sweet Potato & Chicken is affected, but as a company of parents and families we are acting with an abundance of caution," Beech-Nut said in a statement.
