TUESDAY, Sept. 30, 2025 (HealthDay News) \u2014 The U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has announced a recall of about 58 million pounds of frozen corn dogs and other sausage-on-a-stick products.<\/p>\n
The Class I recall \u2014 initiated by Texas-based Hillshire Brands, a subsidiary of Tyson Foods \u2014 follows multiple consumer reports of “extraneous pieces of wooden stick within the batter.” Five of those complaints involved injuries.<\/p>\n
Class I recalls pose a high or medium risk of serious adverse health problems, or death, according to FSIS.<\/p>\n
The recalled products include \u201cState Fair Corn Dogs on a Stick\u201d and \u201cJimmy Dean Pancakes & Sausage on a Stick.\u201d More than 20 related products are on the recall list<\/a>.<\/p>\n To determine if a product is part of the recall, consumers should check the package for the number \u201cEST-582\u201d or \u201cP-894\u201d as well as the specific product name, use by\/sell by dates and other identifying information noted in the recall list.<\/p>\n The affected items were packaged between March 17, 2025, and Sept. 26, 2025, at a single facility in Haltom City, Texas. In a statement, Tyson said it initiated the recall \u201cout of an abundance of caution\u201d to ensure consumer safety.<\/p>\n FSIS is concerned that many of these products may still be in consumers\u2019 freezers or at various institutions, including schools and military facilities. The affected products were distributed to retailers nationwide, sold online and sent to school districts and U.S. Defense Department facilities.<\/p>\n Officials are advising anyone with these recalled products to either throw them away or return them to the store and request a refund.<\/p>\n The recall underscores the role consumer complaints play in identifying potential food safety hazards.<\/p>\n More information<\/strong><\/p>\n The U.S. Department of Agriculture\u2019s Food Safety and Inspection Service has more recall information<\/a>, including links to the product recall list.<\/p>\n
