Clif Bars Recalled Over Possible Listeria in Sunflower Seeds

The recall is linked to a larger recall of sunflower seeds produced by Minnesota-based supplier SunOpta

Three Clif Bar products are being pulled from store shelves as part of a larger recall of sunflower seeds that could be contaminated with listeria.

Clif Bar & Company is voluntarily recalling Clif Bar Nuts & Seeds energy bars, Clif Bar Sierra Trail Mix energy bars and Clif Mojo Mountain Mix trail bars, which contain sunflower seeds produced by Minnesota-based supplier SunOpta.

SunOpta announced its recall in May after a spot check indicated some of its sunflower seeds could be contaminated with listeria.

The latest extension of the recall applies to the following Clif Bar products:

  • Clif Bar Nuts & Seeds energy bars with best-by dates from June 8, 2016 through Jan. 21, 2017
  • Clif Bar Sierra Trail Mix energy bars with best-by dates ranging from June 5, 2016 through March 24, 2017
  • Clif Mojo Mountain Mix trail mix bars with best-by dates from June 16, 2016 through Feb. 2, 2017

No illnesses have been reported, according to the Food and Drug Administration. Customers can call 1-888-851-8456 with questions.
