You would have to do the same thing with your categories by exporting categories.csv and correcting entries in the "path" column, but it sounds like you deleted all categories and recreated so this should not apply.
You may want to do a backup if you haven't already. Luckily I did and it came in handy. Restored images from it once and the whole store another time.

Thanks... none of my products are linked to any categories right now so I wouldn't think it would show anything in that column on the .csv but I will check it out.
I honestly am thinking about just hiding the breadcrumbs completely with the custom CSS as my dropdown menus on my nav bar makes them not necessary.
EDIT: Mine are all fixed... I guess I just had to refresh 170 times and wait an hour after deleting and remaking all the categories.
