The plastic was traced back to the Mars factory in the southern town of Veghel in the Netherlands.A Mars Netherlands spokesperson said: "We cannot be sure that this plastic was only in that particular Snickers. We do not want any products on the market that may not meet our quality requirements, so we decided to take them all back."The recall only involved products manufactured at the Dutch plant.It covers mostly countries in Europe and does not extend to the US, where Mars is based.The company has not said how many bars are affected or how much the recall will cost.[CODE]http://www.bbc.com/news/business-35642075[/CODE]</blockquote>
