(UNDATED) - The maker of Jimmy Dean Heat ‘n Serve Original Sausage Links is recalling more than 14 tons of its frozen, ready-to-eat sausage links because they may have pieces of metal inside.
CTI Foods of Owingsville, Kentucky, is recalling about 29,028 pounds of Jimmy Dean Heat 'n Serve Original Sausage Links Made with Pork & Turkey after the food maker received five complaints from consumers, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service.
No injuries have been reported to the Food Safety and Inspection Service, but five consumer complaints about the product containing metal prompted the recall.
The frozen, ready-to-eat sausage links were produced and packaged on Aug. 4, 2018. The 23.4-oz. pouches had a use-by date of Jan. 31, 2019. On the back of the package, the product also has a case code of A6382168 and the establishment number "EST. 19085."
These items were shipped to an establishment in Tennessee where the product was further distributed to retail stores.
Consumers who have purchased these products should not eat them and either throw them away or return them to the place of purchase, the USDA says.
