Nestle has recalled food products over bits of glass, the company stated last Thursday. The recalled was voluntary because of “potential presence of glass pieces” according to the company statement.
The suspected products include DiGiorno frozen pizzas, Lean Cuisine meals, and Stouffers products.
“No injuries have been reported,” the statement said. “We are recalling these products because they may contain small pieces of glass that may cause injury. Although our investigation is ongoing, we believe the source of the glass is spinach that was an ingredient common to the products subject to this recall.”
Nestle also explained that the recall was ordered out of “an abundance of caution after several consumers reported that they had found small pieces of glass in some of these products.”
The recall covers the following products:
- DiGiorno Thin & Crispy Spinach and Garlic Pizza
- DiGiorno Rising Crust Spinach and Mushroom Pizza
- DiGiorno pizzeria Thin Crust Spinach and Mushroom Pizza
- DiGiorno pizzeria Tuscan-style Chicken Pizza
- Lean Cuisine Spinach and Mushroom Pizza
