Plain-English summary

Annie's Homegrown Inc is recalling its Rising Crust Spinach and Mushroom Pizza products. The recall affects 43,194 cases of the 25.0 oz Certified Organic variety, distributed in the United States. The products have best-by dates between January 9, 2013, and September 14, 2013.

The recall was initiated after the company was notified by its flour supplier that a faulty screen at the flour mill created the possibility of metal fragments in the flour used for the pizza crust. The U.S. Department of Agriculture was also notified because some of the products fall under their jurisdiction.
