Why these products were recalled

Mars Wrigley Confectionery US, LLC has voluntarily recalling specific varieties of SKITTLES" Gummies, STARBURST" Gummies, and LIFE SAVERS" Gummies due to the potential presence of a very thin metal strand embedded in the gummies or loose in the bag.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
