Reason for recall
Product adulterated. End user found a wingnut inside their canister; the firm determined that it came from the outside of the magnet unit attached to the blender. The wingnut looks bent out of shape and as a precautionary measure the firm wanted to recall all canisters produced during the affected lot.
Foreign material recalls cover pieces of metal, plastic, glass, wood or other objects that got into the product during processing and could cause injury if eaten.
