The U.S. Food and Drug Administration reports that Annie’s Inc. has initiated a recall of all varieties of their ”Annie’s Homegrown Rising Crust” pizzas.
Not to be confused with their competition Amy’s, this Berkeley, California-based company reported that a metal mesh screen failed at a flour mill it uses to prepare ingredients for the pizza. Pieces of the screen were found in both the flour and in prepared pizza dough. The company said there had been no consumer complaints, illness or injuries so far.
Pizzas affected by the recall are those with a “best by” date of between Jan. 9th and Sept. 14, 2013.
Pizza lovers may feel the pinch of not having some of their favorites available for a bit but be sure to check the dates on what you may have in your freezer for safety’s sake.
