King’s Hawaiian Voluntarily Recalls Pretzel Hamburger Buns, Slider Buns, Pretzel Bites
King’s Hawaiian has voluntarily recalled its Pretzel Slider Buns, Pretzel Hamburger Buns and Pretzel Bites products out of an abundance of caution following a recall of an ingredient used in the pretzel products from one of its suppliers, Lyons Magnus.
Lyons Magnus voluntarily recalled nutritional and beverage products, including King’s Hawaiian pretzel products, due to the potential for microbial contamination, including from the organism Cronobacter sakazakii. While no illnesses associated with King’s Hawaiian pretzel bread have been reported, and no pathogens have been found in any King’s Hawaiian products to date, the recall is being conducted to ensure consumer safety.
According to the bread company, this recall does not impact any other King’s Hawaiian products, as no other products use this ingredient from Lyons Magnus. King’s Hawaiian will resume producing all pretzel products once the company has ensured all current product has been disposed of and has confirmed the safety of all ingredients.
Consumers in possession of any King’s Hawaiian Pretzel Slider Buns, King’s Hawaiian Pretzel Hamburger Buns or King’s Hawaiian Pretzel Bites should dispose of the product. Consumers can contact King’s Hawaiian at 877-695-4227, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. PT, if they have any questions, or to request a replacement product.
