The State of Waffles Emergency

I didn’t know that there’s a Waffle shortage. I’d better write to my Senator!

At first it sounded like a joke, but apparently a Kellogg plant was closed due to Listeria fears.

The New York-based Annex Capital Management, general partner of Annex Holdings, is a private equity group.

In a written statement, Annex officials said the Gardenburger withdrawal “is not the first time that Kellogg has faced food-safety and product-quality issues.”

Annex points to September when Kellogg recalled 4,500 cases of Eggo waffles and Eggo pastries after the Georgia Department of Agriculture found listeria monocytogenes bacteria in a sample. The product had not been shipped into the marketplace and no illnesses were reported, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

I am still looking for any news items and press releases regarding this matter; only found a few.
