Supermarket chain Wegmans has voluntarily recalled some of its frozen, fully cooked chicken nuggets because they may contain bone fragments.
The recall aligns with a public health alert from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, which has advised the public not to eat the affected products.
The Wegmans recall for was initiated on Jan. 24. A subsequent FSIS public health alert was issued a few days later on Monday, Jan. 29, with the agency noting it did not request or issue its own recall “because the product is no longer available for purchase.”
“The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) is issuing a public health alert for frozen, fully cooked Wegmans breaded chicken breast nuggets that may be contaminated with extraneous material, specifically bone fragments,” the agency said in a statement Monday. “FSIS is issuing this public health alert to ensure that consumers are aware that this product should not be consumed.”
“FSIS was notified of the issue after Wegmans received multiple consumer complaints of bone fragments in the frozen fully cooked breaded chicken breast nugget product,” FSIS said.
If you or a loved one has suffered losses due to consuming this, or any, Wegmans product you may be entitled to compensation. To learn more, contact the experienced product liability lawyers at Breslin and Breslin today.
