Some of the most popular candies are part of a huge recall issued by Mars Wrigley. A voluntary recall has been issued for Skittles, Starbursts, and Life Saver Gummies according to a press release.
Mars Wrigley issued the recall for specific varieties of SKITTLES® Gummies, STARBURST® Gummies, and LIFE SAVERS® Gummies over concern that there was the potential presence of a very thin metal strand embedded in the gummies or loose in the bag. According to the press release, the products in question were manufactured by a third party and distributed in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
According to the TODAY Show, Mars Wrigley was made aware of the issue after there were consumer reports were made to the company. At this time there have been no known illnesses to date caused by the recalled gummies.
