Thousands of pounds of raw and frozen pork breakfast sausage products are being recalled after plastic may have contaminated the food, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service announced.

Fontanini Foods has recalled 2,320 pounds of Fontanini Pork Sausage Links sent to distributors in four states, according to the FSIS announcement.

The recall comes after two customers' complaints that they found "clear, hard plastic" in the sausage. There have been no confirmed reports of injuries related to the product.

Here's what to know about the recall.

The recall includes 10-pound box cases containing Fontanini Pork Sausage Links, according to the FSIS.

The recalled products were packed on June 23 and state "Item 393" on the box and the packing date on the shipping label.

The products were distributed for service in restaurants and other food service locations, but the FSIS announcement did not include a list of businesses that purchased it.

"FSIS is concerned that some product may be in food service and restaurant freezers," the announcement stated.

USA TODAY has contacted Fontanini Foods for more information.

FSIS suggests that anyone who may have been injured by consuming the recalled food should contact a health care provider.

Restaurants and other food establishments that still have the recalled products are urged to throw away the sausages or return them to the original place of purchase.

Anyone with questions regarding food safety can contact the United States Department of Agriculture's  Meat and Poultry Hotline at 888-674-6854 or email them at MPHotline@usda.gov.
