Bj's Wholesale Club Recalls Peppered Ham Due to Cross-Contact Risk
Bj's Wholesale Club is recalling D&W Peppered Ham sold in deli bags because it may have been sliced on equipment used for mortadella with pistachios.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II and involves a potential cross-contact hazard with pistachios (a tree nut allergen). No illnesses or injuries are reported in the source text, and the risk is theoretical based on equipment usage, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity precautionary recall.
