Tyson Food Inc. Recalls Chicken Product

 

WASHINGTON – Tyson Foods Inc., a Pine Bluff, Arkansas business, is recalling approximately 52,486 pounds of chicken wing product that may be adulterated because of having an “off odor” scent, announced the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Services (FSIS).

According to a press release by the USDA, the fully cooked buffalo style chicken wing section item was produced on Oct. 24, 2015 and Oct. 25, 2015.

The following product is subject to recall: 28-oz. retail bags containing multiple pieces of “Tyson® Any’tizers® Fully Cooked Hot Wings® CHICKEN WING SECTIONS COATED WITH A FLAVORFUL HOT, TANGY SAUCE” with use by/sell by dates of October 24, 2016 and October 25, 2016, packaging dates 2975PBF0508-23/2985PBF0500-01 and case codes 2975PBF0508-23/2985PBF0500-01.  

The problem was discovered when Tyson Foods Inc. received consumer complaints about the product being “off-odor” as well as mild illness associated with consumption. After these complaints, Tyson Food Inc. brought this issue to the attention of FSIS.

“There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products by FSIS,” read the press release. “Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider.”

The USDA also stated that consumers who have purchased this product are urged not to consume them and throw them away. They can also return the product to the place of purchase.
