This recall covers multiple products. Package checks remain possible matches: a barcode or establishment number alone does not establish whether your package was affected by warehouse temperature abuse. Compare the official 27-page label document and contact Kayem (800-426-6100) or your retailer. Only the 12 oz Old Tyme frankfurter barcode has been independently verified here; other barcodes may not retrieve the notice, so search the product name. The separate Chelsea-only product list is currently unavailable to our source check. The March 31–October 7, 2026 dates are approximate production dates, not best-by dates.
