Bob Evans Farm inc. has recalled almost 47,000 pounds of pork sausages amid fears the products are contaminated with plastic, according to officials. The sausages were withdrawn from sale after three customers filed complaints about finding plastic in their food.

The U.S Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) warned that sausages produced on august 1st may contain pieces of clear hard plastic The firm based in Ohio recalled five 12oz pork sausage products with a 8213 lot code: Bob Evans Maple Pork Sausages; Brown Sugar and Honey sausages; Fresh from Meijer Maple Flavored Sausage Links; Giant Eagle Maple Pork Breakfast Sausage Links Caramel Colour Added; and Schnuks Maple Recipe Breakfast Sausage.

“These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase,” the FSIS  said in a statement. According to the agency, the sausages were transported to locations in Indiana, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin. No reports of adverse reactions to the recalled products have been reported.

“Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider,” the FSIS said.

The FSIS urged customers who have bought and frozen Bob Evans sausages to check they are not from the potentially contaminated lot. Steve Bacon, vice president of food safety and quality at Bob Evans, told Newsweek the firm takes complaints “extremely seriously.” After three customers reported potential small plastic pieces in their Maple Sausage Links, the firm launched an internal investigation and isolated the product runs.

“We are confident that no other products were affected and there have been no injuries reported,” he said.
