Consumer Alert - Contaminated Chocolate!

Okay, it's only white chocolate, not the dark stuff you purists prefer, but still! Sacre bleu! How dare they contaminate the food of the gods?

CNN reports that Kraft is recalling Baker's premium white chocolate for possible salmonella contamination.

The affected packages have UPC Code 0043000252200 and four best-when-used-by dates: 31 MAR 2008 XCZ; 01 APR 2008 XCZ; 02 APR 2008 XCZ; and 03 APR 2008 XCZ, the company said late Wednesday.

This recall is only for Baker's Premium White Chocolate Baking Squares (6 oz.); no other varieties of Baker's White Chocolate or any other Baker's products sold in the United States are impacted by the recall.

Consumers can contact the company at 1-800-310-3704 with any questions or to request reimbursement for purchased product.

I'm not eating anything with white chocolate in it, for the nonce.

Stumble It!
