Urgent Gerber Baby Snack Recall for New York Families

If you’re a parent in New York State with young children, be aware: Gerber Products Company has issued a voluntary recall of certain Gerber Arrowroot Biscuits. Some packages may contain pieces of soft plastic or paper, items that could put your child at risk.

Why the Recall Was Issued

Gerber is recalling these biscuits out of an abundance of caution after learning that its ingredient supplier has recalled the arrowroot flour used in the product. Gerber has stopped working with this supplier to prevent further issues.

Which Gerber Biscuits Are Involved

The recall covers only Gerber Arrowroot Biscuits in 5.5 oz packages made between July 2025 and September 2025. No other Gerber snacks or foods are affected by this recall.
