2K pounds of sausage recalled for ‘foreign matter,’ metal concerns: Return ASAP
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has issued a nationwide recall for approximately 1,930 pounds of ready-to-eat holiday kielbasa sausages after a consumer complained of finding metal in the product.
The recall is a Class I, the agency's highest risk level, indicating a reasonable probability the product could cause serious health consequences or death.
Nearly 2,000 lbs of Olympia Provisions' kielbasa sold nationwide are included in the recall in 16-ounce vacuum-sealed packages bearing 'BEST IF USED BY' dates of Feb. 19, 2026.
The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service is concerned some products may still be in consumers' freezers or refrigerators.
"Consumers who have purchased this product are urged not to consume it," the recall reads.
"This product should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase."
Products were shipped to retail locations in California, Oregon and Washington.
Products were also available for purchase nationwide through online direct-to-consumer sales.
As of Jan. 12, no injuries have been reported relating to the recall.
