Might wanna bake your own muffins today.

Popular snack label Entenmann’s is recalling five different packages of its Little Bites brownies and muffins, as Fortune reports they may contain small, harmful pieces of plastic due to an “error” at one of the brand’s contracted bakeries.

Bimbo Bakeries, Entenmann’s parent company, pinpointed the issue after receiving customer complaints about plastic pieces in their snacks, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. One injury has been reported thus far.

The recalled snacks were distributed over the last two weeks in 37 states but are being removed from store shelves. Customers who purchased the snacks below should throw them away or return them for a refund.

4 of the Most Commonly Recalled Foods (and How to Buy Them Safely)
Baked Goods(01 of04)

The Concern: While it's been more than 10 years since the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act went into effect, unlabeled allergens—most often peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soy, dairy, fish, shellfish and eggs—are still the number one cause of recalls for FDA-regulated foods. And they often crop up unannounced in bakery products.

Small Thing to Keep in Mind: If you have an allergy, check the label each time you buy a product, because manufacturers sometimes change recipes and a trigger food may have been added. Here's a helpful list of unexpected words to watch out for, broken down by the type of diet you're following. (credit:Jacques Palut/iStock/Thinkstock)
Cantaloupe(02 of04)

The Concern: These orange-fleshed melons are different from honeydew and watermelon, since their "netted" exterior is more porous, so contaminants from soil, water, animals (and their manure) can get trapped in the rind. Plus, unlike other fruits, they're not acidic, so pathogens can grow more easily once you cut the melon open.

Small Thing to Keep in Mind: As many of us already do, avoid buying cantaloupes that look bruised; and, if you purchase precut cantaloupe, make sure it's refrigerated or on ice. Finally, don't let the sliced fruit sit out at room temperature for more than two hours. (credit:Olga Miltsova/iStock/Thinkstock)
Chicken(03 of04)

The Concern: This popular meat (we buy about 86 pounds per capita annually) is one of the most common causes of foodborne illness.

Small Thing to Keep in Mind: A good recommendation is to buy chicken last when you're grocery shopping, since keeping it cold can prevent bacteria overgrowth. Also, be sure to defrost frozen chicken safely and cook it to 165 degrees (use a meat thermometer). (credit:Wiktory/iStock/Thinkstock)
Sprouts(04 of04)

The Concern: Alfalfa, clover, radish and mung bean sprouts, which add crunch to salads and sandwiches, score well nutritionally. But since 1996, there have been at least 30 food-related illness outbreaks linked to raw and lightly cooked sprouts. FoodSafety.gov has an entire page devoted to awareness about these tiny vegetables.

Small Thing to Keep in Mind: If you enjoy sprouts in salads, buy only ones with fresh, clean, white stems and roots that have been kept properly refrigerated. Douglas Powell, who blogs about food safety, says the best way to prepare sprouts is to cook them thoroughly before eating (so, stir-fries and pad Thai are fine).
