A food manufacturing company is recalling over 29,000 pounds of Jimmy Dean frozen sausage links after five people called the U.S. Food Safety and Inspection Service to report they found metal pieces in the product, according to the Department of Agriculture. CTI Foods LLC, a Kentucky-based company that produces Jimmy Dean sausage, recalled the “Heat ’n Serve” pork and turkey links on Monday. “Jimmy Dean is closely monitoring this recall and working with CTI to assure proper coordination with the USDA.”No injuries were reported in connection with the contamination, the USDA said. The recalled 23.4-oz pouches of “Jimmy Dean Heat ’n Serve Original Sausage Links Made with Pork & Turkey” bear an expiration date of Jan. 31, 2019, the case code A6382168, and a timestamp range of 11:58 through 01:49, the USDA said. “FSIS is concerned that some product may be in consumers’ freezers,” the recall notice said.
