You might want to think twice before purchasing your next bag of hash browns.
On Friday, the Food and Drug Administration released a statement that said:
"McCain Foods USA, Inc. announced today it is voluntarily recalling retail, frozen hash brown products that may be contaminated with extraneous golf ball materials, that despite our stringent supply standards may have been inadvertently harvested with potatoes used to make this product. Consumption of these products may pose a choking hazard or other physical injury to the mouth."
The mix-up is apparently due to the fact that a driving range is located nearby. Balls from the range were hit so far, that they made their way to the potatoes, where they were inadvertently harvested with them. The packages were distributed to American states such as Illinois, Wisconsin, and Florida, to name a few.
You don’t read about things like this every day…
