Here is a list of new product recalls issued this week: 11/27/09-12/4/09.
Please note this list includes most recalls from CPSC, USDA, FDA, NHTSA (carseats and tires only) and boat recalls from the Coast Guard. I do not include vehicle recalls or USDA/FDA recalls related to undeclared allergins.

Adding one more recall as it might affect a few people here. I have slim-fast cans in my drawer here at work as well as at home so I will be calling to get a refund on them.

Unilever United States, Inc., in cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), is conducting a nationwide voluntary recall of all Slim-Fast® ready-to-drink (RTD) products in cans, due to the possibility of contamination with Bacillus cereus, a micro-organism, which may cause diarrhea and possibly nausea and/or vomiting. The products were sold in stores nationwide.
