If you ate breakfast sausage at a restaurant in California, Florida, Michigan, or Nevada in the past week and feel fine, you're almost certainly past the risk from this recall. USDA pulled one lot of Fontanini Item 393 breakfast pork sausage links after two customers reported clear hard plastic in it. The Class I label on the recall describes the worst that could happen to someone who eats it. The product only went to foodservice, so it never reached a grocery shelf or a home freezer.

If you've got vacuum-sealed pork, beef, or goat labeled A&D Foods in your freezer, don't cook it. USDA recalled 167,639 pounds because the federal inspection stamp on the label is forged. No veterinarian checked the animals before slaughter, and no one verified the sanitation that keeps Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria off the carcass. No illnesses have been reported, but USDA rates this Class I, its most serious tier.

If you have organic frozen blueberries or mixed berries from Publix or Walmart in your freezer, check the bag. The FDA has escalated the recall to Class I, its most serious tier, after people across Florida and Georgia got sick from Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O145:H28 traced to a single Chilean supplier. Freezing doesn't kill this bug, and rinsing won't reliably wash it off. If your bag matches, throw it out.

Five Outshine Fruit Bar flavors and the Variety Pack are being pulled nationwide over possible glass fragments. Check your freezer for six specific UPCs with best-by dates from May 31, 2027 through November 30, 2027; if a box matches, return it for a refund or throw it out. No illnesses have been reported, and the clinical picture for anyone who already ate a bar is more reassuring than the word 'glass' suggests. There's a short list of symptoms, though, that would turn a scare into a visit.

If you have fresh jalapeños, salsa, guacamole, or dip at home from Coast Citrus, Taylor Farms, NatureBest, or Whole Foods with a "Best If Used By" date on or before August 16, 2026, throw them out. Don't wash them. Same story if you ate at Chipotle or QDOBA between June 14 and July 16: watch for diarrhea and fever. Symptoms usually show up within three days but can arrive as late as a week later. Most healthy adults ride it out at home. A short list of warning signs tells you when to stop waiting.
