In a significant safety announcement, JM Smucker Co. has initiated a recall of two popular Great Value – branded baked goods sold exclusively at Walmart stores across the nation. The items in question are the Great Value Cinnamon Rolls, with a UPC code of 078742201160, and the Great Value Cheese Danishes, which have a UPC code of 078742201177.
The recall pertains to products with the lot number L092525200 269X, which can be found on both the cinnamon rolls and the cheese danishes. These products were sold either in 12 – count cases or as individual pastries. A total of 2,027 cases of the cheese danishes and 1,602 cases of the cinnamon rolls are part of this recall.
The reason behind this action is the potential for plastic contamination within the products. Classified as a Class II recall by the FDA, this indicates that consumption of the affected items poses a risk of temporary or reversible harm. Currently, there have been no reports of any injuries related to the consumption of these products, but the FDA and the manufacturer are strongly urging consumers to check their purchases.
For consumers who may have these products in their homes, it is crucial to check pantries and refrigerators for the recalled items by looking for the specified UPC codes and lot number. If any of the affected products are found, they should be discarded immediately, or alternatively, returned to Walmart for a full refund.
A Class II recall, as defined by the FDA, is “a situation where exposure may cause temporary or medically reversible health effects”, with examples including minor choking hazards or mild digestive irritations.
