I also recently bought Pillsbury Grands Crescent Rolls (Big & Flaky) at our Kroger store in Murray Ky. I found several pieces of glass inside the dough.

To Whom this may concern:

Last night I had found shards of glass in dough of crescent rolls. I had then googled to see if anyone else had a similar problem, which to my surprise there were so many. I had saved the dough with the glass as well as all the packaging. In researching further I had found this recall as well. Please advise on what can be done.
