The product labels are incorrect as they do not
reflect the ingredients associated with the pasteurized cheese
in the cheese dogs, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food
Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) said in a statement on
Sunday.
The products were formulated with milk, which is not declared on
the product label, the FSIS said. (http://r.reuters.com/dun68v)
The recall is classified a Class I recall — a health hazard
situation where there is a reasonable probability that the use
of the product will cause serious, adverse health consequences
or death.
FSIS and Kraft have received no reports of adverse reactions due
to consumption of these products.
Kraft was not immediately available for comment outside normal
U.S. business hours.
