MAC and cheese and salad are among the products sold at two major retailers that have been pulled from shelves after a fridge unit breakdown sparked health concerns.
Manufacturer Reser's Fine Foods voluntarily recalled batches of their Classic and White Cheddar mac and cheese which is sold in Walmart and Target, fearing spoilage from a faulty fridge unit.
The recall has been categorised as Class II by the FDA - when a "product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote."
The hearty treat was not the only product to be recalled - potato salads, scalloped potatoes, pasta salads, corn, egg salads, gravy, spinach dip and desserts were also affected.
A Reser's Fine Foods spokesperson told Fox Business: "This issue was isolated to one truck load of product delivered to one distributor location."
"The recall was initiated on 7/29/24 and no affected products ever made it to store shelves.
"Any items purchased from stores are safe to consume."
Walmart said their stores were left unimpacted by the recall but Target has not yet responded.
The FDA claims that possible spoilage is linked to a malfunctioning refrigeration unit on a trailer.
The products are sold in several states including California, Illinois, Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota, according to Newsweek.
Reser's website claims all of these products must be refrigerated rather than frozen.
Meanwhile, carmaker Mini has put deliveries of its latest models on ice over a safety recall due to potentially defective parts.
Delays have occurred to orders of the new three and five-door Cooper and the Countryman SUV because of an impending brake system recall that has already affected the manufacturer's parent company BMW.
A spokesperson for Mini told Autocar: "Some new Mini vehicles, which are affected by the extension of the safety-related recall for the integrated braking system, are currently on hold and will be delivered to customers as soon as the respective parts have been exchanged."
Over in the UK, supermarket giant Tesco pulled its meat-free patties from shelves because they may be far too hot to eat when cooked.
The product recall is due to a "burn risk" to customers from the 240g Tesco Plant Chef 2 Meat-Free Burgers with Melting Middle.
It says: "Tesco are taking the precautionary step of recalling Tesco Plant Chef 2 Meat-Free Burgers with Melting Middle because the centre of the burgers may maintain a high temperature once cooked.
"This may result in a burn risk to customers."
Customers were urged not to eat the burgers, and instead return them to any Tesco store to receive a full refund.
