No illnesses, reactions or events have been reported to date.
The recall was initiated after IDLife’s quality control team discovered a problem at the Company’s contract manufacturer for its bars. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in the contract manufacturer’s quality control procedures.
Consumers who have purchased Protein, Snack or Kids Bars affected by this recall are urged to return them to IDLife for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the company Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm CST, at 1-972-987-4430.
