Nestle, the makers of DiGiorno Pizza has issued a recall for Over 27,000 Pounds of Frozen DiGiorno Pepperoni Pizza.

The affected boxes have the manufacturing date June 30, 2021, and a “best by” date of March 2022.
The batch code on the items is 1181510721.The recall affects 27,872 pounds of pizza, according to the US Department of Agriculture.
These products were shipped out to distribution centers and retailers across the country.
The USDA and Nestlé both recommended that people who bought the affected pizzas throw them out or return them. Nestlé said that if you’re not allergic to soy, it should be safe to eat the pizzas.
