People who are allergic to wheat, have celiac disease, or are sensitive to gluten and wheat should not eat cereals that have an expiry date: Coco Chimp, August 27; Jungle Munch, August 1st; and Gorilla Munch, August 24 and September 21.

"This inability to meet the gluten-free standard that our consumers expect and trust is a serious concern," said Arjan Stephen, executive vice president of sales and marketing at Nature's Path, in a statement. "We have reviewed and modified our internal practices to ensure that our gluten-free cereals will not be affected in the future."

USA Today reported that the recall involved 416,088 boxes in the United States and Canada.
