The US Food and Drug Administration said that nearly 2 million baked goods sold nationwide, including donuts and coffee rolls, were recalled last month due to concerns that the product could be contaminated with Listeria. .
The manufacturer FGF brand issued a recall containing product products by December 13, 2024, the FDA said in an enforcement report released on Wednesday. The recall came into effect on January 7, 2025, but the FDA did not issue a press release.
The recalled products included chocolate, raspberries, Bavarian donuts, French crawls, eclairs and coffee rolls.
Dunkin’ responded to a request for comment by citing a statement from the FGF brand.
In it, the company said it wanted to clarify the reporting of the recall to ensure that customers are not misunderstood or confused.
The recall was completed in early January and came as a result of a survey from one of the company’s donut facilities in the US, he said. No foods have tested to be positive for listeria or donuts currently on the market to be safe for them to eat.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Listeria is the third cause of death from foodborne diseases in the United States.
Most people who consume bacteria-contaminated foods do not get sick, but pregnant women, babies, elderly people and people with weakened immune systems can become seriously ill or die, the CDC says It’s there.
An estimated 1,600 Americans get infected with Listeria each year, with about 260 people dead from bacteria, the agency said.
