Target Baby Food Recall In Illinois: Here’s What You Need To Know

As a parent of two myself, I know that there are so many different things that will worry you and freak you out when there's a new baby in the family, especially when it comes to what your baby is eating.

That's why it's perfectly understandable that parents in Illinois and across the nation are very concerned about the baby food recall from Target and are checking their pantries extra closely to make sure that they don't have any of the recalled products.

Let's get into what you need to know, and what to do if you have any of the recalled baby food products.

A Company That Makes Baby Food That's Sold Under A Target Store Brand Has Recalled More Than 25,000 Units Because The Foods May Contain Elevated Levels Of Lead

Back in March, a company based in Miami called Fruselva USA issued a recall on baby food marketed for babies who are 6 months of age and up. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) then classified the recall as a Class II recall early in April.

A Class II recall means that "use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote." according to the FDA.

A Class I recall is the most serious type, meaning that there's a reasonable probability that use or exposure to the product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death. Class III means that the product is not very likely to cause health consequences, but there's still a chance, so the product is being recalled.

Here Are The Details Of What's Being Recalled, And What You Should Do
