Peperoncini recalled after customer finds dead mouse in jar

Mezzetta recalled 32-ounce jars of its GOLDEN GREEK PEPERONCINI MEDIUM HEAT after a customer reported finding a dead rodent inside. The California company issued a voluntary recall with the FDA, saying it has contacted the consumer and identified the customers who received the affected product. The discovery surfaced in a September 16 TikTok in which the woman said the jar was for a Mississippi pot roast. No illnesses or injuries have been reported.
