General Mills initiated a recall for approximately 736,000 Pillsbury bread rolls on July 13, due to the potential presence of glass contamination. This recall was classified as Class II, indicating that the product could lead to temporary or medically reversible health issues. A spokesperson for General Mills emphasized that food safety is their top priority.

The company stated that the affected products are primarily marketed towards businesses and are not typically sold in retail stores. The recall specifically includes two frozen dough products.
