Johnsonville sausage recalled in 10 states. Why? Two words: hard plastic
Johnsonville made the fourth not-food-in-your-food recall in the last 10 days because, of all the things that go into sausage, plastic shouldn’t be among the ingredients list.
So, the Chicago area company recalled about 22,672 pounds of Johnsonville Brats Cheddar Bratwurst after, the USDA recall notice says, “it had received two consumer complaints reporting hard plastic material found in the bratwurst product.”

The bratwurst carries package code No. B9FOD, has “Est. 1647” on the label for Johnsonville’s Momence Packing facility in Momence, Illinois and went to Georgia, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Kansas, Minnesota, Tennessee, Virginia and Wisconsin.
Recalled sausage should be returned to the store for a full refund or thrown in the trash too deep for overly curious pets to get into it.
