Kraft Heinz Recalls Select Batches of Incorrectly Packaged Kraft Singles

In a packaging equipment-related incident, Kraft Heinz voluntary recalls 83,800 cases of individually wrapped Kraft Singles American processed cheese slices that were mis-wrapped and shipped to a limited number of customers.

The voluntary recall comes as a precaution after a temporary issue developed on one of its wrapping machines, making it possible that a thin strip of the individual film may remain on the slice after the wrapper has been removed. If the film sticks to the slice and is not removed, it could be unpleasant and potentially cause a gagging or choking hazard.

Only Kraft Singles American processed cheese slices with the case/package information, shown in the images, are affected. No other varieties or sizes are included in the recall.
