There’s A Massive Pork Recall For More Than 2 Million Pounds of Food. Here’s What You Need To Know.
This seems to be a never-ending problem right now!
The recall started out last week with 117 tons of pork being recalled, now the recall has extended to over 2 million pounds of pork and pepperoni products!
The affected products are from Alexander & Hornung, which is a part of Perdue Premium Meat company… they’re not sounding too premium at the moment though.
The 2,320,774 pounds of meat which consist of pork and pepperoni products is due to Listeria monocytogenes.
Yikes!
Pepperoni is something that I buy weekly for my family and all of these recalls are really stressing me out.
I thought the Coca-Cola recall was bad, but this is so much bigger than that.
