Perdue Foods is recalling about 1,440 pounds of chicken breast nugget products because of misbranding and an undeclared allergen. Milk was used in the product and it is not declared on the label. The problem was discovered by the company and occurred because of an ingredient reformulation and labeling error. There have been no reports of adverse reactions.
The product recalled is bundled packages of three 12-ounce tray packs of “Perdue Original Chicken Breast Nuggets”. Each package has the establishment number “P. 369” inside the USDA mark of inspection, and a sell by date of December 16, 2012. The products were made on October 16, 2012 and distributed to stores in Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maryland, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.
