据外媒报道,10月5日美国通用磨坊(GeneralMills)公司宣布,将在美国召回180万盒无麸质的Cheerios谷物麦片。因为它们可能含有小麦麸质成分,如果麸质过敏症的人群误食,可能会引起不良反应。
据报道,通用磨坊公司表示,由于生产过程中操作失误,部分麦片里面含有麸质,因此将召回加利福尼亚洛迪工厂生产的部分日期生产的原味和蜂蜜坚果味无麸质麦片。为迎合消费者的需求,通用磨坊开始生产适合特殊人群的无麸质麦片。该公司正在把五个品种的麦片升级为无麸质麦片。

General Mills Inc is recalling 1.8 million boxes of gluten-free Cheerios cereal because they may contain wheat, which can cause adverse reactions in people with gluten allergies.
The company said on Monday it was recalling the original and honey nut flavored varieties of Cheerios produced on certain days at its Lodi, California facility, saying wheat flour may have been accidentally added to its gluten-free oat flour system at the facility.
The incident occurred when the facility lost rail service and the company's gluten-free oat flour was being off-loaded from rail cars to trucks for delivery, said Jim Murphy, president of the company's cereal business, in a blog post on General Mills' website. He said it was isolated event and a result of human error.
