No other production codes, sizes or brands of Faribault Foods Inc. products are affected by this recall.  “This has been determined to be an isolated incident,” according to the recall notice. “We are recalling these products because they may contain small pieces of plastic and/or metal that may cause injury. Although our investigation is ongoing, we believe the source of the plastic and/or metal was an ink pen that entered the product stream.  “Consumers who may have purchased the products listed above should not consume them but should instead return them to the store where purchased for a refund or replacement.”  (To sign up for a free subscription to Food Safety News, click here.)
