Panera Bread, Kentlands Boulevard, Gaithersburg, MD, USA

285 Kentlands Boulevard, Gaithersburg, 20878 Maryland, United States

I went to Panera Bread on 11/30, around 2 pm. I had a cup of Chicken Noodle Soup, a half Green Goddess Cobb Salad with Chicken (iceberg was substituted for romaine due to E Coli outbreak), and a baguette on the side. I had no symptoms whatsoever prior to my visit and even exercised in the morning with no complications. This was my first meal of the day. Around 6 pm I began experiencing a headache and left the restaurant early even though I had planned on staying longer to work on school work. Over the next 2 hours, I began to experience severe stomach pains, belching, and my headache intensified. Eventually, I began to experience weakness, chills, mild fever and dizziness. Around 9:30 pm I vomited close 1 gallon worth. Around 10 pm I vomited again, slightly less than the original amount. Shortly after I experienced watery diarrhea. By this point, I was extremely weak, cold, and my body was aching. I had finally stopped vomiting and was able to go to sleep. The following Saturday morning I experienced dry heaving, but no vomit, and had a small amount of diarrhea. I was still very fatigued, and still had body ache and slept most of the day, yet was still tired enough to fall asleep at bedtime. I also had no appetite throughout the day. The following Sunday I had diarrhea one last time and seemed to regain some of my strength. My appetite slightly increased, but not by much. As of Monday as I write this, I am still experiencing headaches, lack of appetite and upset stomach anytime I eat something, but I have not experienced anymore vomiting or diarrhea. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting, Headache, Weakness, Dizziness, Chills, Loss of Appetite, Stomach Pain, Burping, Body Ache

El Chilar Rodriguez LLC of Apopka, FL is recalling 127 cases (12 bags/case) of El Chilar Ground Cinnamon “Canela Molida” (1.25 oz bag), because it may contain traces of lead. The product was distributed by La Raza LLC, 8795 D'Arcy Rd, Forestville, MD 20747, which distributes to … See More
brick-and-mortar retail stores within the state of Maryland. No illnesses have been reported to date.

Short term exposures to very low levels of lead may not elicit any symptoms. It is possible that increased blood lead levels may be the only apparent sign of lead exposure. Additional signs and symptoms of lead exposure are more likely with acute exposure to higher levels of lead or chronic exposure to lead. While lead can affect nearly every bodily system, its effects depend upon the amount and duration of lead exposure and age/ body weight. If a child is exposed to enough lead for a protracted period of time (e.g., weeks to months) permanent damage to the central nervous system may occur. This can result in learning disorders, developmental defects, and other long-term health problems. For adults, chronic lead exposure is associated with kidney dysfunction, hypertension, and neurocognitive effects. Lead can cause serious health problems if too much is ingested, such as damage to the brain and kidneys, and can interfere with the production of red blood cells that carry oxygen to all parts of your body.

The product can be identified by the lot codes D300 EX1024 and F272 EX1026, which is stamped on the front side of the packaging (see attached example).

The recall was initiated after the Maryland Department of Health collected product samples and analysis came back with elevated concentrations of lead. Subsequent investigation indicates the problem might be caused by potentially adulterated raw material from the supplier.

Consumers who have purchased El Chilar Ground Cinnamon “Canela Molida” with lot code D300 EX1024 and F272 EX1026 are urged to stop using the product immediately and to return it to the place of purchase for a full refund. Parents and caregivers of toddlers and young children who may have been exposed to lead should contact their health care provider to report their symptoms and receive care.

If you are experiencing symptoms after eating this product it is important to report it. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist seek medical attention.

Company name: El Chilar Rodriguez LLC
Brand name: El Chilar
Product recalled: Ground Cinnamon “Canela Molida”
Reason of the recall: Potential Metal Contaminant - Lead
FDA Recall date: March 06, 2024
