The Hillshire Brands Company is recalling about 58 million pounds of corn dogs and sausage-on-a-stick products sold under the Jimmy Dean and State Fair labels due to possible contamination with wood fragments, according to the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).
Packaged between March 17 and Sept. 26, the recalled items bear establishment numbers “EST-582” or “P-894” and were distributed nationwide to retail, food service and online outlets. The recall surfaced after multiple consumer complaints, including five reports of injury. FSIS warns that affected products may still be in home, school or institutional freezers. Consumers are advised to discard or return the products immediately rather than risk consumption.
