Ultra Slim Fast Cans Recalled

Filed at 2:42 a.m. EDT

By The Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) -- A batch of ready-to-drink diet shakes are being
recalled by Slim Fast Foods because some of the cans may be filled with a
diluted cleaning solution.

About 192,000 cans of Ultra Slim Fast's creamy milk chocolate-flavored
shakes are being pulled off the shelves, said Dr. Harry Greene, medical
director of the West Palm Beach, Fla., company. The cans were sold
individually.

The company believes only a few cans were filled with the cleaning liquid, a
diluted solution used to clear the filling machines in between batches. Some
of the liquid was accidentally canned and packaged with a group of
milkshakes.

The recall was prompted by a complaint in Utah, where a customer reported
buying a can filled with water. Another customer from the same store called
a week later with the same complaint. The second customer was seen by a
doctor after complaining about tingling in her mouth. Greene, who spoke
with that doctor, said there was no major injury.

An FDA official said ''there isn't any immediate health hazard'' from the
products being recalled.

The cans being pulled off the shelves come from batch No. ETMC9053B02.
In addition to Utah, they were distributed to stores in Arizona, California,
Colorado, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Virginia and Wisconsin.

''The product itself (from that batch) is perfectly OK, but to ensure that
nobody else gets a can full of water, we're recalling it from those areas, ''
Greene said.

Jon: Gee, I tried that but all I got was a text copy, not a URL. Why is that?
