In a statement Wednesday, the Austin-based grocery chain says the pies were sold as half and full pies packaged in clear clamshell packages and brown, kraft paper boxes. They bear the UPCs 24917100000 and 24917300000 with sell-by dates of October 27-November 30.

The recall affects pies sold in stores in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Arkansas.

Signs have been posted in stores across North Texas, and all affected product has been removed from shelves.
