FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - August 8, 2011 - XYMOGEN® of Orlando, FL is recalling specific lots of 3 Varieties of OrganiX Bars: Omega-3, Spice and Greens, because they may contain undeclared peanut protein.

Affected lots of OrganiX Bars were distributed nationwide through mail orders between the dates of August 4th, 2010 to April 19th, 2011.
