On
May 19, 2017,
our hot dog manufacturer, John Morrell and Co. announced a voluntary recall of approximately
200,000
pounds of hot dogs, including Nathan’s hot dogs, after a small number of consumers reported seeing visible metal flakes between the hot dogs and the packaging film. The amount represents a miniscule percentage of the billions of pounds of products annually produced by John Morrell and Co. John Morrell and Co. has communicated with their customers and consumers asking anyone that purchased the affected product to discard it and contact John Morrell and Co. for a refund. John Morrell and Co. notified the United States Department of Agriculture which has designated the recall as a Class II Recall.
