Hot Dog Recall
A Buffalo, New York firm is recalling about 50-thousand pounds of hot dogs because of possible undercooking.
The Agriculture Department says it hasn't received any reports of illnesses caused by the meat. It was recalled after Zemco Industry received a consumer complaint.
The hot dogs were sold in one-to-five-pound packages on October fifth and sixth.
They were distributed to stores in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York and Vermont. Each package bears the code EST. 5222.
