  A week before people across the country sit down for barbecues and cookouts to celebrate the Fourth of July, one company is recalling a crucial element of any picnic: hamburger and hot dog buns.

  H-E-B supermarkets announced it would voluntarily recall an undetermined amount of its store brand hamburger and hot dog buns, as well as hot dog buns from Hill Country Fare, KXAN-TV reports.

  The company initiated the recall “due to the possible presence of foreign material that might impact the quality of the product.”

  Apparently, the foreign material is a terry cloth glove used for handling hot pans may have broken up in the dough during production.

  As a result, the buns may include elements that pose a potential choking hazard.

  H-E-B say it is unaware of any incidents involving the buns, and that customers who purchased the affected bread products can return them to the store for a full refund.

  Recalled buns include:
