Are you eating contaminated sausage? 17,000 pounds recalled – find out if you're at risk!
- Replies 0
Attention, sausage lovers! Before you fire up the grill or start cooking your next meal, you might want to check your fridge or freezer.
A substantial sausage recall has been issued, and it's important to know if your favorite links are affected.
Approximately 17,720 pounds of sausage link products have been pulled from shelves due to a contamination scare that could impact your health and safety.
The Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has announced an active recall on several sausage products from DJ’s Boudain, a brand that may be familiar to many of you.
The reason? A consumer's unexpected and unsettling discovery of a piece of a pen in their sausage link, which unfortunately led to an oral injury.
This incident has raised concerns about the potential for foreign matter contamination in these products.
The recall specifically targets DJ’s Boudain sausage products that bear the establishment number “EST. 13246” on their packaging.
These products were sold in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, so if you reside in or have recently visited these states, take note. Here's a breakdown of the impacted items:
In addition to these retail products, both DJ's Original Boudain and DJ's Jalapeno Boudain sold fresh and frozen in bulk to restaurants are also being recalled.
If you have any of the recalled sausage products, it's crucial to stop consuming them immediately.
You can either dispose of the product safely or return it to your place of purchase for a full refund. It's better to err on the side of caution and ensure that your meals are safe to eat.
For any questions or concerns about the recall, you can reach out to Jonathan Wallace, vice president of operations at DJ’s Boudain, LLC, at 409-842-0558 ext. 111 or via email at [email protected].
