A consumer complaint of a small piece of rubber in H-E-B brand baby food has led to the recall of the entire H-E-B Baby Food 2 pack, 4-ounce cups product line.

The San Antonio, TX, company reported no injuries associated with the recalled products in its notice posted on the Food and Drug Administration’s website.

“Though we have only received one report of a foreign material in H-E-B Baby Food 2 pack 4 oz. cups, as a company, we are committed to absolute and complete food safety. As a result of that commitment, coupled with the fact that we are dealing with a children’s product, we have made the decision to pull all of our H-E-B Baby Food 2 pack 4 oz. cups from our shelves,” said Winell Herron, H-E-B Group Vice President of Public Affairs, Diversity and Environmental Affairs, in the recall notice.

The H-E-B company has launched an investigation and is working with the manufacturer of its branded baby food to ensure safety measures are being taken. H-E-B is encouraging customers who have any H-E-B Baby Food 2 pack 4 oz. cups in their pantries to return it to their nearest H-E-B store for a full refund.

The recall affects all lots of only H-E-B Baby Food 2 pack 4 oz. cups:
