Kraft is recalling 242,000 cases of selected Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Dinner after eight consumer complaints due to boxes containing metal.

The firm said it has been contacted by eight consumers about the impacted products but no injuries have been reported.

Recalled product is the 7.25-oz. size of the Original flavor of boxed dinner with the "Best When Used By" dates of September 18, 2015 through October 11, 2015, with the code "C2" below the date on each box. 

The "C2" refers to a specific production line on which the affected product was made.

Some have been packed in multi-pack units with a range of different code dates and manufacturing codes on the external packaging (box or shrink-wrap), depending on the package configuration​.

Recalled product was shipped to customers nationwide in the US, Puerto Rico and some Caribbean and South American countries but not to Canada.

Kraft said no products with manufacturing codes other than "C2" below the code date on the individual box are affected.   

We deeply regret this situation and apologize to any consumers we have disappointed.

“Consumers who purchased this product should not eat it.  They should return it to the store where purchased for an exchange or full refund.”
