Bimbo Bakeries recalls bread brands due to potential broken glass

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27 (UPI) -- Bimbo Bakeries is recalling bread under the brands of Sara Lee, Nature's Harvest and others due to the potential of glass in the bread caused by a broken light bulb at a factory.

The company, headquartered in Horsham, Pa., made the announcement Wednesday after receiving three consumer reports of small pieces of glass found on the outside of the bread. No injuries were reported.

"Bimbo Bakeries USA has initiated a voluntary regional recall of certain bread products under the Sara Lee, Kroger, Bimbo, Nature's Harvest, Great Value and L'Oven Fresh brands due to the possible presence of fragments of glass caused by a broken light bulb at one of its bakeries," Bimbo Bakeries said in a statement.

The products have a "best by" date ranging between Aug. 29 and Sept. 1.

"All recalled products are being removed from store shelves. No other products are affected," Bimbo Bakeries added. Consumers can return the bread to stores for a full refund.
