3If you are in doubt as to whether or not your product is part of the recall just call 800-962-1413. I spoke to a customer service representative who was very helpful. -
3The explanation regarding the "KB", "AP", "FK" is very confusing as the package I have states: May 02 2013, FKA03 205 11:57. Does this mean this package was affected? I have a Kellogg's Variety 30 Pack (31.370z) with UPC 0-38000-70973-9 on the big box. There were three Mini Wheats Bite Size boxes included, two of which have been eaten (one remains). The Mini Wheats box has a UPC 3800021993, does this mean this one is included in the recall? If so, what does this mean for the ones that were eaten? Is this something we need to seek medical attention for?

3My family already eat our box of Frosted Mini wheats last month and I recycled the box. (we enjoyed them!)
Have there actually been any cases where metal fragments have been found in the cereal boxes? Are the metal fragments clearly visable?
What is the potental Health Risk of eating these metal fragments? Should my family visit a doctor? -
4We buy ours in bulk and have gotten rid of the boxes. How do we know, and how do we get reimbursed if we just throw them away to be better safe than sorry?
-
5What about packages that have KBB, KBC, KBA, and KBBA? Are these included in this recall?
What about your Jumbo Club Packs? They contain three boxes of the mini-wheats. The UPC is different for these - 3800022051. -
3I purchase this kind of cereal all the time. I just got a call from price chopper saying I had purchased a box that could have the mesh in it. Well I got the call a little too late. My son and father had already finished the box of frosted mini wheats. So hopefully there was nothing in what they ate. Kathy

Is Costco contacting its customers who purchased the club package of this product (similar to what I've ready about Sams)? Like many other customers, I have the cereal in packages but dumped the box. Kelloggs should think about imprinting serial numbers on packages. I'm totally annoyed about throwing my $7.00 box of cereal in the trash, but will do so to avoid having metal fragments tear up the insides of my kids. I called Kellogg's and they essentially said, "tough luck". No numbers from the box, no coupon for new cereal. Shame on you Kelloggs for not managing this better. General Mills is looking pretty tasty right now.Comment -

frustrated
Yes, I found metal in mine. At the time I thought my fillings were breaking but that was not the case. I called Kellogg's (found the 800 number online) and they took my information and said to throw all I had away and they would send me coupons of some sort. I never received the coupons by email or snail mail but did get an email survey from them about my satisfaction with their response.

how do i get reimbursed for the 2 boxes of cereal of frosted mini wheats that have been recalled.
-

I checked numbers on recall list and got in touch with Kellogs customer service. I received a $5.00 coupon good on any Kellog product. I know I paid more then $5.00 for my double pack I purchased in Costco. I guess anything is better then nothing.

I checked the recall numbers on the Kellog site. I then got in touch with customer service,
I received a $5.00 coupon to use on any Kellog product. I know this was below the price I paid for a double pack at Costco. -
