Soy Surprise: Chicken Recall Shakes Restaurants Nationwide
14 Dec
Summary
- Over 62,000 pounds of chicken products recalled due to undeclared soy.
- The affected chicken was produced on October 16 and shipped nationwide.
- No adverse health reactions reported, but caution is urged for soy allergies.
A significant recall has been issued for over 62,000 pounds of fully cooked, bone-in breaded chicken products by Suzanna's Kitchen due to the presence of undeclared soy. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced the recall on Friday, highlighting a common issue of mislabeling and undeclared allergens in food products.
The recalled chicken, produced on October 16, was distributed to restaurants across the United States. This broad distribution means that individuals dining out may be at risk, even if they do not purchase the product directly. Consumers with soy allergies are particularly cautioned, as the undeclared allergen poses a potential health hazard.
While no adverse reactions have been confirmed, FSIS is actively monitoring the recall's effectiveness. Restaurants have been instructed to identify and remove the affected chicken from their inventory. Consumers are advised to discard or return any recalled products and thoroughly clean any surfaces that may have come into contact with them.
