Kellogg recalled four cereal brands due to packaging problems. Their press release cites "an uncharacteristic off-flavor and smell coming from the liner in the package." It states the company is working in consultation with the Food & Drug Administration.
Here's what they said:
The products involved in the recall were shipped throughout the U.S.
We have identified a substance in the package liners that can produce an uncharacteristic waxy-like off taste and smell.
Consumers should not eat the recalled products.
What they didn't say:
1. Where the package liners were manufactured.
2. What the identified substance is.
Did the FDA fill in the gaps? No, but Bloomberg tried. It's now a process of elimination.
Update: CBS News reported the problem came from "an excess of chemicals in the liners (package)." That clears up very little...
