The Kraft Heinz Company is voluntarily recalling select code dates and manufacturing codes of Kraft Singles individually-wrapped slices due to the possibility that a thin strip of the individual packaging film may remain adhered to the slice after the wrapper has been removed. If the film sticks to the slice and is not removed, it could potentially cause a choking hazard.

The recall applies to 3-lb. and 4-lb. sizes of Kraft Singles American and White American pasteurized prepared cheese product with a Best When Used By Date of Dec. 29, 2015, through Jan. 4 2016, followed by the Manufacturing Code S54 or S55. The list of products can be found on http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm456883.htm. No other sizes, varieties or code dates are included in this recall. And no products with manufacturing codes other than "S54" and "S55" after the code date are included in this recall.

Public Health confirmed that Sheppard AFB facilities do not carry these products for sale and no illnesses have been reported to date in connection with this recall.
