Once Upon a Farm Tractor Wheels Recall: Toddler Bars Pulled Nationwide Over Choking Hazard
Once Upon a Farm has voluntarily recalled every lot and flavor of its Tractor Wheels Organic Toddler Soft-Baked Bars sold in the United States and Puerto Rico. When moistened by saliva, the bars can become thick and sticky, posing a potential choking hazard to young children. Review the UPC codes below and return or dispose of any impacted product—do not serve it to children.
