Thousands of ready-to-eat pizza and bread products were recalled over the potential presence of metal fragments, according to the Food and Drug Administration.
North Carolina-based Bakkavor voluntarily initiated the recall on Jan. 19, according to the FDA.
Last week, the health agency classified the alert as a Class II recall, which means “use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
