WASHINGTON, D.C. (WHNT) — Nearly 3,000 pounds of frozen beef shepherd’s pie products have been recalled due to the possibility of “clear, flexible plastic” pieces.
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), 2,717 pounds of frozen dinners from Marie Callender’s were recalled after the firm received several complaints from consumers.
Products affected by the recall were made on March 1, 2023, with time stamps ranging between 17:45-17:56 hours. Those products will also have the following information:
