What to do if you have recalled roll dough
The FDA recall notice does not list specific consumer instructions from General Mills. In recalls involving potential foreign material, the usual advice is to avoid eating or serving the affected product. Discard it or contact the place of purchase, supplier or distributor for next steps. Shoppers who bought fresh-baked rolls at a Walmart bakery in one of the affected states and have questions can contact the store or General Mills for guidance.
Food-service operators and bakery staff should carefully check the product name, UPC, use-by date and lot code on any bulk dough cases. If the details do not match the recall notice, the product is not included in this recall.
The affected dough was not sold to shoppers as packaged grocery items; it was baked in Walmart in-store bakeries and sold as fresh rolls.
Why glass in food can be dangerous
Foreign material in food can pose a risk if swallowed. Depending on the size and shape of the object, hard material such as glass may cause cuts or injury to the mouth, throat or digestive tract.
Anyone who believes they were injured after eating a recalled product should contact a health care provider.
