HazardBacillus cereus may cause intestinal distress such as abdominal cramps and diarrhoea.

Fix:  If you have the recalled product, do not consume it.  You should phone the Unilever Consumer line at 1 800 896 9479 to find out how to get a refund.

The recall of the Slim-Fast products follows a recent recall of Nutrisystem Peanut Butter Granola Bars because of the possibility of contamination by Salmonella bacteria.

I have not received my refund check.  I have been requesting it since December.
