Why Was This Recall Issued?

The recall was initiated after General Mills identified the potential for foreign material, specifically glass, to be present in the hard roll dough.

The company initiated the recall voluntarily as a precautionary measure to protect consumers from this hazard.

The recalled Pillsbury Hard Roll Dough was distributed to food service customers across the following states: Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming. Because this is a food service product distributed in bulk case quantities, it primarily affects restaurants, institutions, and other commercial food preparation businesses rather than individual retail shoppers. The recall status is currently listed as ongoing.
