General Mills Totino's and Jeno's Frozen Pizza Recall - E. coli Contamination

According to the US Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, General Mills Operations has issued a recall on just over 3 million pounds of frozen meat pizza products that may be tainted with E. coli O157:H7 and could also be connected to a recent rash of E. coli O157:H7 infections.

Products on the list to be recalled include:

• Totino’s Original Crisp Crust Party Pizza – Pepperoni (10.2 oz. package)
• Totino’s Original Crisp Crust Party Pizza – Classic Pepperoni (10.2 oz. package)
• Totino’s Original Crisp Crust Party Pizza – Pepperoni Trio (10.2 oz. package)
• Totino’s Original Crisp Crust Party Pizza – Combination Sausage & Pepperoni Pizza (10.7 oz. package)
• Totino’s Original Crisp Crust Party Pizza – Three Meat Sausage, Canadian Style Bacon & Pepperoni Pizza (10.5 oz. package)

• Jeno’s Crisp ‘n Tasty Pizza – Combination Sausage & Pepperoni Pizza (7 oz. package)
• Jeno’s Crisp ‘n Tasty Pizza – Supreme Sausage & Pepperoni w/ Green Peppers & Onion Pizza (7.2 oz. package)

All of these items contain the establishment number “EST. 7750” inside the USDA mark of inspection in addition to a “best if used by date” marked on the package no later than “02 APR 08 WS.” This date is based on a 155-day shelf life. Consumers should search their refrigerators for similar pizza products. These recalled frozen pizza products were manufactured prior to October 31, 2007 and shipped to retail stores across the country. If any of these products are found, retain the boxes and do not consume the pizza.

The Tennessee Department of Health conducted a joint investigation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention when numerous bouts of E. coli O157:H7 sicknesses were reported in multiple states. Cases of E. coli O157:H7 illness that may be linked to the contaminated pizza products were reported in the following states:

People became infected with this particular strand of bacteria between the dates of July 20, 2007 and October 10, 2007, but all patients have since recuperated. E. coli O157:H7 is potentially deadly, and some of its common symptoms include bloody diarrhea and dehydration. Toddlers, senior citizens, and those with weakened immune systems are most vulnerable to such an illness.

Anyone with questions concerning this recall should contact our consumer hotline at (800) 768-5455. If you or a loved one have fallen ill after eating Totino's or Jeno's brand frozen pizza products, call or email the Morgan & Morgan product liability team to discuss a potential claim.
