Mars Wrigley is voluntarily recalling some Skittles, Starburst and Life Saver gummies because there could be a very thin metal strand embedded in the gummies or loose in the bag.

The FDA said it's not aware of any illness to date. The products were made by a third party and distributed in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.
