Walmart Recalls: Chicken Sausage with Plastic Pieces, Shoe Accessories that Can Catch on Fire

UNITED STATES, JUL 18 – The recall follows three consumer complaints of plastic contamination in over 24,000 pounds of chicken sausage, prompting nationwide removal from Walmart shelves, officials said.

  • On July 17, Kayem Foods Inc. initiated a voluntary recall of over 24,000 pounds of its Al Fresco Fully Cooked Sweet Apple Chicken Sausage across the United States due to potential contamination with plastic fragments.
  • The recall followed three consumer complaints reporting white plastic pieces found in the sausages produced on June 28 with a freeze-by date of October 1, 2025.
  • The 11-ounce, four-piece vacuum-packed packages were distributed through retail locations including Walmart stores in 28 states and Puerto Rico and are being removed from the market.
  • FSIS classified the recall as Class I, the highest risk, warning that plastic fragments can cause choking, dental damage, or digestive injury, and advised consumers to discard or return the product while no injuries have been reported.
  • Kayem Foods is collaborating with retailers and distributors to promptly remove the potentially contaminated products from circulation, while FSIS performs routine checks to ensure the recall is properly executed. Consumers with concerns are advised to reach out to their healthcare providers or contact the company directly for more information.
