Continental Mills is voluntarily recalling select boxes of pancake and waffle mixes sold under Walmart and Kroger private label brands due to “a potential foreign material contamination.”
According to recall notices posted on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration website, fragments from a cable used to clear the processing line were discovered in a limited amount of product.
“No contaminated product has been reported by consumers to date,” the two recall notices stated. “No injuries have been reported to date.”
The Walmart recall is for a single lot of Great Value Buttermilk Pancake & Waffle Mix that was distributed to stores nationwide.
