NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 About 58 million pounds of corn dogs and other sausage-on-a-stick products are being recalled<\/a> across the U.S. because pieces of wood may be embedded in the batter, with several consumers reporting injuries to date.<\/p>\n

According to a Saturday notice<\/a> published by the Agriculture Department\u2019s Food Safety and Inspection Service, the recall covers select \u201cState Fair Corn Dogs on a Stick\u201d and \u201cJimmy Dean Pancakes & Sausage on a Stick\u201d products from Texas-based Hillshire Brands, which is a subsidiary of Tyson Foods.<\/p>\n

The contamination problem was discovered after Hillshire received multiple consumer complaints, the service notes, five of which involved injuries. The company later determined that a \u201climited number\u201d of these products included \u201cextraneous pieces of wooden stick within the batter,\u201d Tyson said in a corresponding announcement \u2014 adding that it opted to initiate a recall \u201cout of an abundance of caution.\u201d<\/p>\n

The recalled corn dogs and sausage-on-a-stick goods were produced between March 17 and as recently Friday, per Saturday\u2019s recall notices. Tyson, which is headquartered in Arkansas, says the issue was isolated to one facility located in Haltom City, Texas.<\/p>\n

FSIS is worried that some of these recalled products may be in consumers\u2019 refrigerators and freezers in households across the U.S. \u2014 as well as some schools and other institutions. In addition to being sold online and to retailers nationwide, the agency noted Saturday, these products were also sold to school districts and Defense Department facilities.<\/p>\n

Consumers in possession of the now recalled \u201cState Fair Corn Dogs on a Stick\u201d and \u201cJimmy Dean Pancakes & Sausage on a Stick\u201d are urged to throw them away or return them to their place of purchase.<\/p>\n

To determine which corn dogs and other sausage goods are subject to this recall, consumers should check the product\u2019s name, use by dates and other identifying information published online by the FSIS<\/a> and Tyson<\/a>. The products being recalled should also have an establishment number of \u201cEST-582\u201d or \u201cP-894\u201d printed on the packaging.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if consumers who purchased these now-recalled products will be eligible for a refund. The Associated Press reached out to contacts for Hillshire Brands and Tyson for further information Sunday.<\/p>\n

Foreign object contamination is one of the top reasons<\/a> for food recalls in the U.S. Beyond plastic, metal fragments<\/a>, bits of bugs<\/a> and more \u201cextraneous\u201d materials have prompted recalls by making their way into packaged goods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 About 58 million pounds of corn dogs and other sausage-on-a-stick products are being recalled…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":192201,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[28,111872,46763,49326,12839],"class_list":["post-192200","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-business","tag-business","tag-corn-dogs","tag-food-recall","tag-recalls","tag-usda"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192200","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=192200"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192200\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/192201"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=192200"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=192200"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=192200"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
