I'm sure by now you heard that General Mills has recalled over 5 million frozen pizzas this week because of possible E coli contamination. As of now, the recall is voluntary, and it covers Totino's and Jeno's pizzas with pepperoni. They think the problem is from the pepperoni on pizzas produced at a General Mills plant in Ohio. The recall covers pizzas that have been produced since July. So far, there have been 21 confirmed cases of E coli from people who have eaten Totino's or Jeno's pepperoni pizzas. Three of those cases have been here in Kentucky.
The pot pie recall last month didn't bother me too much, mainly because the 'Rents and I don't eat them. But frozen pizza is a different story. Fortunately for us, we usually buy Jack's or Tony's brands of frozen pizzas, which are in the clear. But we do buy Totino's and Jeno's when we have coupons for them or if they're on sale. All I can say is thank goodness that pizza rolls haven't been recalled or we'd be in big trouble. Those are one of my family's favorite hot snacks.
