Big Recall On Bread Sold In Massachusetts Due To Shards Of Glass

More mind-blowing safety alert news from the general public watchdogs at the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). And this one involves a brand of bread sold in Massachusetts!

By the way, folks, this is an "Urgent" recall. It has been elevated to a Class II recall which means, in the words of the FDA:

The product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems, but is unlikely to lead to long-term serious injuries.

Still, only a Class 1 Recall is more urgent, which the FDA says is "the most serious type", because it can lead to more serious health risks, including death. Here's the lowdown from the FDA.
