H-E-B recalls hamburger, hotdog buns

Coalition petitions FDA to ban 8 flavorings

Texas-based H-E-B issued a voluntary recall of H-E-B brand hamburger and hotdog buns and Hill County Fare Hotdog buns due to the possible presence of foreign material, according to FDA.

The grocery chain said the recall was initiated because a terry cloth glove used for handling hot bans could have broken up in the tough, resulting in a potential choking hazard.

Products on the shelf as of June 26 are not included in the recall.

No incidents related to the consumption of these products have been reported to the company.

A full list of products can be found on the FDA website.
