Expanded Voluntary Recall
Expanded Voluntary Recall
On February 4, 2009, Genisoy Food Company expanded its voluntary recall of Protein Bars because of concern that the recalled bars contain peanut products that were manufactured by Peanut Corporation of America (PCA), which is the focus of an ongoing Salmonella investigation. Genisoy took this action in cooperation with the FDA in response to PCA's recent expansion of its peanut products recall to include all peanut products produced in PCA's Blakely, Georgia plant since January 1, 2007.
Genisoy Food Company is committed to high quality food products and food safety. We are issuing a voluntary recall as a precautionary measure out of concern for consumers.
In the U.S and International locations (excluding CANADA). , only Genisoy and MLO Bars with "Best By" dates ranging as shown below are included in the initial and expanded subject of voluntary recall:

The recalled bars were sold in all types of retail stores as individual bars in 12-count caddies throughout the United States. No 6-count caddies of Genisoy or MLO Bio Protein were affected by this recall.
All MLO Bio Protein Bars and Genisoy Soy Protein Bars with codes after 5/27/09 are not a part of this recall because they were produced at a manufacturer that did not use PCA peanut butter products. Genisoy Organic Apple Cinnamon, which is the focus of the original Genisoy Food Company Voluntary Bar Recall, is the exception - still subject to voluntary recall.
Genisoy Organic Soy Protein Rich Chocolate and Mixed Berry are not a part of this expanded recall because the manufacturer did not use PCA peanut products in these bars.
No other Genisoy or MLO bars or products are involved in this expanded Recall.
In CANADA, only Genisoy and MLO Bars with "Best By / Meilleur Avant" dates ranging as shown below are included in the initial and expanded subject of voluntary recall:
