(AP) - American Pie is recalling 1,440 cases of Marie Callender Turtle Pies because of elevated amounts of bacteria.

The pies were sold in Pennsylvania and 14 other states.

The company says the pies were on hold due to a bacterial count that was higher than company standard -- then they were accidentally shipped from a warehouse.

None of the bacteria are pathogens, but the company warns that eating the pies could lead to gastrointestinal illness, nausea, or vomiting. No illnesses have been reported.

The pies were sold in Kroger, Giant Eagle and Hy-Vee supermarkets in 15 states.

The recalled pies have a UPC code of 12781 10280 and a production code ending in 143. Only pies with production codes ending in 143 on the package are included in the recall.

States where the pies were sold: Virginia, Ohio, Texas, West Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Maryland, Nebraska and South Dakota.

Like I said before it's something every day being recalled. I know good and well they could do better inspecting and preparing our packaged food than what they do.

Turtle pies are soooo good.

I love Marie Callender's. they have the best food. I have bought some of their product's in the frozen section of the grocery store. I miss being able to go there for lunch. I have purchased pie's from their restaurants many times. Everything is made fresh, I hope this recall doesn't make anyone sick.
