COLLEGEDALE, Tenn. (AP) --McKee Foods Corp. is recalling packages of Little Debbie Nutty Bars in two more states because an ingredient may contain small metal particles.
The Collegedale-based company said the snacks were distributed Monday through Wednesday in Ohio, the Chicago suburb of Lombard and Chicago's North Side.
McKee on Wednesday also recalled Nutty Bars in Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina and Virginia after they were put in vending machines Feb. 1 and Feb. 2.
The particles were detected through internal quality checks. There have been no consumer complaints.

In Lombard, the recall involves five 25.2-ounce cartons containing 24 bars, twin wrapped. The cartons have this code: Guaranteed Fresh APR 01 2007, 01302103.
In Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina and Virginia, the recalled Nutty Bars are in 12-ounce cartons containing 12 bars, twin wrapped, with carton-end codes Guaranteed Fresh MAR 31 2007, 01302091 or Guaranteed Fresh APR 01 2007, 01312091; 25.2-ounce cartons containing 24 bars, twin wrapped, with carton-end codes Guaranteed Fresh MAR 31 2007, 01302101 or Guaranteed Fresh MAR 31 2007, 01302102; and 3-ounce single-serve packages of two bars, twin wrapped, with the code Sell By APR 01 2007, 01312101.

Remindes me of the time I got tons and tons of reject Snickers to feed to the hogs. They loved 'em.
Re-package them as being a good source of iron.
Those things are really good. I'd eat them even with the metal in there.
I agree. This deeply saddens me.
That stuff is poison in a plastic package, anyway. It only bears a vague resemblance to food.
Schrader!
....little Lisa makes that little Debbie look like a pile of puke
Atlanta news stations used this little Debbie recall as an opening draw to their newscast 2 nights ago. No information unless you forced yourself to watch their program through a few segments and commercial breaks.
Disgusted, I found the recall on the web.
The gingerbread men are great too.
Sorry, I should have said gingerbread persons.
Note the steely glint in her eyes.
This kid is clearly up to no good.
My absolute favorites, when I'm not training.
" Biting metal SUCKS!"
Redheads are trouble.
