According to a report from Tobaccoreporter, American Snuff Co., ASC, is voluntarily recalling certain batches of Kodiak Premium Wintergreen Longcut Tobacco that were produced at their factory in Clarksville, Tennessee and sold in 18 states.
ASC has reported this voluntary recall incident to the US Food and Drug Administration and is working with the agency to address the issue.
According to a notice on the company's website, ASC has initiated a recall after discovering that certain batches of its products may contain metal foreign objects that may or may not be visible to consumers. The recall was prompted by a routine inspection which found issues with the production equipment, leading to wear and tear between metal components. This wear and tear could potentially result in metal fragments coming into contact with tobacco during the production process. So far, no products containing these foreign objects have been found, and the company has not received any consumer complaints or reports of consumer harm.
ASC's other products have not been affected, including other varieties of Kodiak, Grizzly, Hawken, and Cougar smokeless tobacco products, as well as all loose leaf, twisted, dry snuff, and plug products.
The American Smokeless Tobacco Company (ASC) has instructed wholesalers and retailers to separate the recalled Kodiak Premium Wintergreen Longcut tobacco from their inventory.
