Attention, Montana parents with little ones: Gerber Products Company has announced a voluntary recall of select Gerber Arrowroot Biscuits. Some packages could contain soft plastic or paper fragments, which may pose a safety risk to your child.

Why the Recall Was Issued

This recall was issued as a precaution after Gerber learned that its ingredient supplier had recalled the arrowroot flour used in these biscuits. Gerber has since cut ties with this supplier to avoid future problems.

Which Gerber Biscuits Are Involved

Only Gerber Arrowroot Biscuits in 5.5 oz packages produced between July and September 2025 are included in the recall. No other Gerber snacks or foods are impacted.
