Once Upon a Farm Recalls Tractor Wheels Snack Bars Over Choking Concern
Once Upon a Farm has recalled its Tractor Wheels soft-baked bars after reports that toddlers could not breathe while eating them.
The New York Times report by Mark Walker stated that Once Upon a Farm has recalled its Tractor Wheels soft-baked bars after reports that "toddlers could not breathe while eating them."
The New York Times reported under a headline stating that the F.D.A. has warned of a snack bar linked to a choking hazard. According to that headline, the agency's warning concerns the same Tractor Wheels product named in the summary, and the two descriptions appear in the same report.
The summary identifies the affected item as a soft-baked bar and attributes the recall to Once Upon a Farm. It does not state how many bars are covered by the recall, how many reports of breathing difficulty were received, or where the product was distributed. The summary uses the word toddlers for the children involved, and it does not give their ages.
The report, as summarized, presents the recall as a response to reports involving toddlers, and it describes the agency as having issued a warning without giving the wording of that warning. Whether the company and the F.D.A. have made separate statements is not addressed in the material available for this account.
This account rests on a single source, the New York Times report, and no other outlet's coverage of the recall was consulted. The details recorded here are limited to the headline and summary of that report, which is brief, and the report carries the byline of Mark Walker. The summary is the only account of the recall's cause that this story can report.
