Six frozen-food items sold at Kroger stores across 17 states have been recalled amid a federal health warning about possible contamination with pieces of wood. The products—ranging from popular State Fair corn dogs to Jimmy Dean pancake and sausage sticks—are being removed from shelves after multiple injury complaints, according to the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS). In this case, the presence of wood fragments in processed meat products presents a risk of oral injury or choking. The USDA’s classification of the recall as Class I—indicating a reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences—highlights the urgency of removing affected products from the shelves. Nationwide, the full recall affects approximately 58 million pounds of food products manufactured by Hillshire Brands between March 17 and September 26, 2025.
