Pepperidge Farm warns sesame sticks may have wire

(Reuters) - Campbell Soup Co's baked goods maker Pepperidge Farm Inc is recalling some "Baked Naturals" sesame sticks because they may contain small, thin pieces of wire.

The company is voluntarily recalling 13,000 cases of 10.2-ounce boxes of sesame sticks after some consumers reported minor scrapes in and around the mouth.

Pepperidge Farm could not immediately be reached for further details.

The boxes, manufactured in Pepperidge Farm's facility in Willard, Ohio, were shipped across the United States and carry a yellow "20% More!" banner across the top.

The company is encouraging consumers to return the packages that are marked "sell by" November 20, 2011 through November 20, 2012 to the store where they were bought for an exchange or full refund.
