The Food and Drug Administration set the second highest risk level for a recall of over 2 million baked goods—some of which were sold at Dunkin’.
FGF Brands, a pastry distributer, initiated the recall of 60 different products on Jan. 7 over potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The affected products—including donuts, fritters, Munchkins, and more—were distributed across the U.S.
On Feb. 5, the FDA gave the recall a class 2 risk level, meaning consuming the affected baked goods may “cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences,” or “the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.”
The recall included the following products sold at Dunkin’:
- Just Baked Yeast Ring
- Just Baked Yeast Munchkins
- Just Baked Yeast Shells
- Just Baked Cake Ring
- Just Baked Sour Cream Cake Donuts
- Just Baked Eclairs
- Just Baked Coffee Rolls
- Just Baked Apple Fritters
- Just Baked Pumpkin Cake Rings
- Just Baked Pumpkin Cake Munchkins
- Just Baked French Crullers
- Just Baked Apple Cider Cake Rings With Natural Flavor
- Just Baked Chocolate Cake Rings Artificially Flavored
- Just Baked Blueberry Cake Ring Natural And Artificially Flavored
- Just Baked Cake Sticks
Despite the classification, consumers do not have anything to currently worry about, according to FGF. All of the recalled products were produced on or before Dec. 13, 2024 and have now expired.
The voluntary recall “does not implicate anything that is currently, or was recently on the market,” FGF said in a press release. “All donuts are completely safe to eat.”
FGF said the recall was a precautionary measure based on non-product related testing at one of their U.S. donut facilities. “No donuts or food contact surfaces ever tested positive for Listeria,” the company said in the press release.
