Plum Organics has recalled apple and carrot baby food products in portable pouches. The product recall has been issued due to concerns of potential botulism contamination.

The baby food manufacturer released a statement indicating that these products do not meet FDA guidelines for acidity level. As a result, they may more easily develop botulism contamination.

Botulism is a serious health condition caused by the development of bacteria in food. In certain situations, it can be life threatening.

Plum Organics has urged consumers to stop feeding these defective products to their babies at once due to this serious health risk. As of now, there have been no reports of illness from the defective baby food, and Plum Organics claims that no other products have been contaminated.

The recalled baby food was sold across the country at Toys-R-Us and Babies-R-Us stores. It came in 4.22-ounce pouches with a "best by" date of May 21, 2010. The UPC code is 890180001221.

If your child develops botulism poisoning from ingesting contaminated Plum Organics baby food, you may be eligible to receive compensation for your child's damages. It is important to consult an experienced defective product lawyer at once to find out the best way to proceed with your case.
