About 58 million pounds of corn dogs and other sausage-on-a-stick products are being recalled across the U.S. because pieces of wood may be embedded in the batter, with several consumers reporting injuries to date.
According to a Saturday notice published by the Agriculture Department’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, the recall covers select "State Fair Corn Dogs on a Stick” and “Jimmy Dean Pancakes & Sausage on a Stick” products from Texas-based Hillshire Brands, which is a subsidiary of Tyson Foods.
The contamination problem was discovered after Hillshire received multiple consumer complaints, the service notes, five of which involved injuries. The company later determined that a “limited number” of these products included “extraneous pieces of wooden stick within the batter,” Tyson said in a corresponding announcement — adding that it opted to initiate a recall “out of an abundance of caution.”
Yeah man that’s the stick
At least wood isn’t toxic. You gotta take the wins when you can get 'em in these times. :[

Victorian England did this with bread. They added enough chalk until people noticed.
Hundreds of years later, “the difference is chalk and cheese” is still a saying.
Now with added fiber!
Y’all can keep your microplastics, I only eat all natural foods like this.
