Nearly three million boxes of frozen DiGiorno pizzas, Stouffer’s lasagnas and Lean Cuisine meals are being recalled after customers said they found pieces of glass in their food.
Nestle USA, the company behind the brands, said no injuries have been reported.
The food maker said the glass may have come from the spinach used in the recalled products. It said an investigation is ongoing.
The recall covers about 2.98 million individual boxes, including four varieties of DiGiorno pizzas, five types of Lean Cuisine meals, four Stouffer’s lasagnas and one Stouffer’s spinach souffle. Nestle USA listed each recalled product on its website, including the production codes on the boxes and the “Best Before Dates.”

This is another industry where speed is king. Just like the fast-food restaurants, these food production plants want production fast, faster, and faster. And this is another industry that pays as low a wage as possible. So they hire the least talented, least educated, and recent immigrants who can barely communicate with supervisors. So, as in the fast food case, we shouldn’t be surprised at problems. The surprise is how little problems they have with what they have to deal with. Customers, look at your food carefully in the supermarket and when you open it at home.
