by FoodRecallsDB.info

What happened

Rich Products Corp is recalling three sizes of frozen artisan-style pizza dough balls because the flour used to make them may be contaminated with E. coli O121. The flour was supplied by Ardent Mills, which issued its own recall for the same contamination concern.

Who is at risk

Anyone who consumed this product could potentially be affected, as E. coli O121 can cause serious illness in all people.

What to do

Check if you have any of the recalled pizza dough products (Product Codes 11268, 11269, or 11270) in your freezer. If you do, do not use them—throw them away or return them to your store. Contact Rich Products Corp or the FDA if you have questions, and seek medical attention if you experience symptoms of E. coli infection such as severe stomach cramps or bloody diarrhea.
