Core update
- The U.S. Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) issued a public health alert for two Mama Cozzi’s frozen breakfast pizzas sold nationwide at Aldi due to possible Salmonella contamination related to recalled dry milk powder used in various dairy ingredients. More products could be added as the recall trace continues. [source: Delish report citing FSIS FDA-linked recall][1]
Key details to know
- Affected products: Mama Cozzi’s frozen breakfast pizzas with best-by dates around October 15–24 of this year. The alert notes that the list could grow as the contaminated ingredient is traced through the supply chain.[1]
- Scope: The recall/alert originated from a broader dairy-ingredient recall and could extend beyond Aldi to other brands if the same dairy ingredient is involved. Consumers are urged to check for updates and discard any affected items.[1]
- Additional coverage: Other outlets have reported FSIS confirming two Aldi items in the current alert, with potential expansion to additional products as the investigation progresses.[2][3]
What you should do
- If you purchased Mama Cozzi’s frozen breakfast pizzas from Aldi with the relevant best-by dates, do not eat them. Either throw them away or return them to the store for a refund/replacement. Check the FSIS updates for the latest list of affected products, as it may grow.[3][5]
Illustrative example
- Example: A consumer in New York who bought Mama Cozzi’s Biscuit Crust Sausage & Cheese Breakfast Pizza with a matching best-by date should check the FDA/FSIS alerts for that exact item and date window, and discard or return if listed. Updates may add more items, so it’s wise to monitor official notices.[3][1]
