A popular macaroni and cheese brand has recalled two products sold across five states over concerns of potential bacteria contamination, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced this week.
Reser’s Fine Foods initiated the recall of its “ Reser’s American Classics Macaroni and Cheese ” and “ Reser’s American Classics Macaroni and Cheese White Cheddar ,” as part of a larger recall of its deli salads and refrigerated products. The recall was issued over concerns that products had become spoiled due to “temperature abuse.”
A spokesperson for Reser’s Fine Foods told FOX Business that the issue “was isolated to one truck load of product delivered to one distributor location.” The recall was initiated on July 29 and was updated to a Class II recall on September 3, according to the FDA.
A Class II recall refers to “a situation in which 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.”
