George’s Inc. of Springdale, Ark. is recalling approximately 29,200 pounds of seasoned raw, chicken breast strips that contain undeclared allergens, soy and monosodium glutamate (MSG). People with allergies to soy or MSG should not eat this product as they runt the risk of allergic reaction if they do. The company had not received complaints of adverse reactions at the time of the recall.
The recalled products were sold in 40 pound bulk cartons labeled “GEORGE’S BONELESS SKINLESS BREAST PIECES W/RIB MEAT.” The case code 4790 and the establishment number “P-13584” below the USDA Mark of Inspection. They were produced and packaged from Dec. 21 through Dec. 23, 2013, and sold to distributors in Tennessee and Iowa for further distribution.
The problem was discovered after a customer notified the company that the product appeared to be seasoned, but was not labeled as such. The problem occurred through a labeling mistake, according to the company.
