UNDATED (WKRC) - Mars Wrigley US and Canada issued a recall of several gummy candies on Friday after discovering a thin metal strand may be inside the candies or loose in the bag.
The recall includes several varieties of Skittle Gummies, Starburst Gummies, and Life Saver gummies. There have been no reported injuries caused by the metal strands, but the company is urging customers not to consume the products.
The gummies were sold in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
The company did not say how many units were affected but did say that a third party manufactured the products.
Customers are encouraged to look on the back of the packet of these items and see if the first three numbers correspond with the recalled items. If they are included on the recall, customers should throw the candy away and contact the company with any questions.
