The company directs buyers to discard affected bags and says it is not offering refunds.

Snack Right Super Foods recalled selected Brad’s kale snacks November 2 over possible thallium contamination. FDA posted the announcement November 3; the firm estimated 25,000 bags in commerce.

Check the flavor, package size and lot together. Crunchy Kale Original, 2 ounces: 33525-1, 33525-2, 33525-3, 34525-1 or 35125-2. Crunchy Kale Cheeze It Up, 2 ounces: 35025-3. Crunchy Kale Radical Ranch, 2 ounces: 29425-1. Veggie Chips Kale, 3 ounces: 33225-3, 33325-2, 33425-1 or 33525-1.

Buyers should discard affected bags, the November notice says, without returning them to stores. It says refunds are not offered. Questions: alexandra@thesnackright.com, weekdays, 10 a.m.–4 p.m. Eastern. Anyone experiencing adverse effects should contact their health care provider.

What it means

Compare lot codes with the notice’s dated product list; a future best-by date does not establish safety. FDA continues to study chronic low-level thallium exposure.
