What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves allergen mislabeling/cross-contact with pistachios (a common allergen) without reported illnesses, which aligns with the 'High' severity criteria for allergen issues on common allergens.
Plain-English summary
BJ's Wholesale Club is recalling Saugy Natural Casing Franks sold in deli bags. The recall is due to the possibility that the product was sliced on the same equipment used to slice mortadella with pistachios, which creates a risk of allergen cross-contact.
