Similac recalled once AGAIN....
So my DH ran to Walgreens tonight to grab some more formula and he noticed signs on the Similac display that the powder similac have all been on a voluntary recall which are causing nausea and diarrhea in infants :-o The store has pulled all of their powered Similac and we are now on the phone with Similac to ask what the heck we do with the bulk of Similac formula we already have. We have 3 opened and 2 unopened. Just giving you ladies the heads up. Also, the UPC on our formula matches the one that has been recalled which sucks, how disgusting to know its due to beetle larva YUCK, Im really thinking of switching brands all togther because I know this isn;t the first time this has happened to Similac! 
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

Re: Similac recalled once AGAIN....
*zing*
We used enfamil and then the target brand- works great for us...
I wouldn't trust Similac anymore... 2 strikes and you're out!

From their website, I'm assuming this is new? No word of it in the news yet, and our Walmart had full shelves tonight when we went.
Abbott recently updated its proactive voluntary recall to include three additional lot numbers of Similac powder infant formula products. This action is a follow up to a recall Abbott announced on September 22, 2010 of certain Similac brand powdered infant formula that did not meet the company's high quality standards. Similac Advance with Iron Powder (8 oz can)Lot #: 624177Y10Use By Date: 1May2011Similac Advance Early Shield Powder (12.9 oz can)Lot #: 67376RB6Use By Date: 1Aug2011Similac Sensitive for Spit-Up Powder (12.3 oz can)Lot #: 92597RB7Use By Date: 1Sep2012If you have any affected product, please stop using it and follow the instructions provided below or contact the Abbott Consumer hotline at 1-800-986-8850.This is not a new recall. This update does NOT apply to any other powder product with different lot codes and it does not apply to any of the Similac containers manufactured after the recall with the lot code "SH" stamped on the bottom of the container.
Every effort is being made to ensure that all consumers who purchased Similac product or received Similac as a sample have been notified and provided resources to confirm whether they have product that has been affected.

We switched to Target also with no complications - and it's a HELL of a lot cheaper!
