TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Publix is voluntarily recalling a specific flavor of GreenWise baby food packets due to a potential lead contamination.

The baby food was distributed across all the eight states where the company is active: Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia.

A spokesperson for the company said there have been no reported illnesses.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention state that ingesting lead can be dangerous, as there is no safe blood lead level. In children, even minimal lead exposure can be connected to developmental delays, learning difficulties, and behavioral issues. High lead exposure may result in brain damage and can even be fatal.

According to the World Health Organization, adults who are exposed to lead can experience long-term health issues, such as an increased risk of high blood pressure, cardiovascular problems, and kidney damage.

If you have purchased this product, you can receive a full refund by returning it to your local store.

For more information, see the Publix recall announcement.
