“Rich Products Corp Pizza Dough Recall: Possible E. coli 0121 Contamination.” GovInfoNow, updated October 8, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/21807-rich-products-corp-pizza-dough-recall-possible-e-coli-0121. Based on FDA recall #F-2243-2017 (https://api.fda.gov/food/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22F-2243-2017%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The dough was made using flour from a supplier that issued a recall due to possible E. coli 0121 contamination. If the dough is consumed, it could cause foodborne illness, but the risk is low because the contamination is not confirmed and the product is not intended for direct consumption in a way that would cause serious injury.

Who’s affected

Anyone who purchased the pizza dough balls with the product code 11267, UPC 0004980012674, or lot numbers listed in the recall. People who use the dough for pizza making are most at risk.

How to tell if you have this one

Check for product code 11267, UPC 0004980012674, or lot numbers listed in the recall (e.g., 77006354 through 77007073). The dough was sold in Canada and distributed by Rich Products Corp in Buffalo, New York.
