Check for Mezzetta Golden Greek Peperoncini From Recalled Lot
G. L. Mezzetta Inc. has announced a limited voluntary recall of 32-ounce jars of Mezzetta Golden Greek Peperoncini, Medium Heat. Check the jar label for both SKU 10106328 and lot 720106. If your jar matches, do not eat it and contact Mezzetta for assistance.
What to check on the jar
- Product: Mezzetta Golden Greek Peperoncini, Medium Heat
- Size: 32 ounces
- SKU: 10106328
- Lot: 720106
Compare the product name, size, SKU and lot code with the information on your jar. The recall applies to the identified product and lot, not every jar of peperoncini with the Mezzetta name. If you cannot confirm whether your jar matches, contact the company for help rather than guessing.
Why the product was recalled
According to the FDA notice, the company initiated the recall after a consumer video showed a potential pest contaminant. The contaminant is described as potential; the notice does not say that contamination was confirmed.
Mezzetta reports that it has received no reports of illness or injury related to the recall. The company also says no other Mezzetta products or lots are included.
What to do if you have the matching jar
Do not consume a jar that matches all the listed identifiers. Contact Mezzetta for assistance with the recalled product. The FDA notice does not provide a broader recall scope, so do not assume that other sizes, products or lots are affected.
If you shop for family members or share pantry items, pass along the product name and lot code so others can check their jars too. For the clearest match, use the complete identifier checklist above rather than relying on the brand name alone.
The FDA’s recall notice is the reference for the product details and consumer guidance. If your jar does not match the listed size, SKU and lot, this notice does not identify it as part of this recall.
