SEATTLE -- Fred Meyer announced Tuesday that its bakery in Clackamas, Ore., had issued a recall for some bakery items sold at Fred Meyer and QFC stores in Washington state because the items may contain pieces of plastic.

“We are unsure at this point how this could occur but are investigating,” said Fred Meyer spokeswoman Melinda S. Merrill.

“We have not heard from any customers that they have experienced this – it’s something we discovered at our bakery,” Merrill said. “These items were delivered to Fred Meyer Stores in Idaho, Oregon and Washington and to QFC stores in Oregon and Washington, and were delivered on Friday, Feb. 22, Sunday, Feb. 24 and Monday, Feb. 25.”

All affected product has been pulled from QFC and Fred Meyer shelves. All QFC and Fred Meyer loyalty card holders who purchased this product will receive a phone message alerting them to this recall.
