The Food and Drug Administration is recalling some cereals made by the Malt-O-Meal company that may contain strains of salmonella.

At least 23 people in 14 states have been diagnosed with salmonella as a result of eating the cereal.

Beware of products with used by dates of April 8, 2008 through March 18, 2009.

Consumers are encouraged to throw cereals with those dates out immediately.
